I continue to be impressed with your work and this very generous blog. I’ve always attempted to help other artists, getting them shows, galleries and publicity when and where I could. Good for you Julia! You must make your parents proud!

I love your sketches. Beautiful! I’m tinkering with my Illustrator and learning to do vector art myself. i’ve been out-of-practice with illustration for some time and now getting back to it again. so your sketches are very inspiring :)

thanks again everyone!

Diane- Once I scan my drawings I use Adobe Illustrator to turn them into vectors and then color them. After that I make them into a grouping that can repeat. Illustrator is a great program to work with because once your designs are vectors you can blow them up to any size you want and they will never look pixelated.

Wow – I love seeing sketchbooks. These are wonderful sketches – very neat too! Once you have your sketches and scan them in, do you manipulate your patterns in Photoshop? I was just wondering what kind of programs you used for obtaining great patterns. Thank you!
