Hi! I'm Julie!
I'm a visual storyteller based in Qingdao, China.
I love that drawing has the ability to weave personal experience and social satire into quiet, layered narratives — whilst still leaving room for playfulness, humour, and hand-drawn charm. I often work with decentralized language and multi-panel comics.
Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to work together!
