Nice to Meet You...

Hi! My name is Julie,
I’m an Illustrator, Graphic Designer, and Storyteller from somewhere dull.

Now, this is the part where I’m supposed to talk about my art journey… but let’s talk about koi fish instead.

I hate koi fish. Not just any fish—specifically koi. I love seafood—salmon, tuna, squid—but koi? Never. The idea of them becoming part of me? Unacceptable.
On a fateful trip to Hawaii in 2011, a koi and I had a verbal argument that escalated to blows. Normally, I don’t hold grudges, but their beauty is only scale-deep—they’re just carp with pretty privilege.

Yes, there’s a koi in my portfolio. That’s because I am a sellout. Commissions are open—send me a note at JulieElesivArt@gmail.com.

Let’s make your vision real.
