Hi! My name is Julia and I´m a swedish comic artist and illustrator based in Umeå. Here I work in my home studio in Tomtebo. I like to draw silly characters who suck at life. :-)
I use a mix of traditional and digital techniques when creating comics and illustrations. Currently I´m working on a graphic novel as well as commissions. Please contact me if you want to collaborate.
More frequent updates on my instagram @seriestrippan and my blog.
