This is my first #kidlitartpostcard! Hello! I'm Julianna, an illustrator & author. I'm open for kids art projects in 2026! I usually do PB, but I'd love to do BB, puzzles, games, & surface design! ✨ juliannaswaney.com ✨I'm rep'd by Anne Moore Armstrong at the Bright Agency

I found a list of "unusual color names" on Tumblr a million years ago & I've started doing an illustration for each one, just for fun. Here's what I've done so far

The third and last book in the Book Uncle trilogy I've illustrated for Groundwood Books & the author Uma Krishnaswami is coming out in August!🦀 A available for Pre-order everywhere or request from your local library!

Bee stickers🐝in my shop!

Have you ever fallen in love with an escutcheon? The bees!❤️

I didn't trim my roses back this winter & now they have so many blooms they are shading out the peonies & the garden is in complete chaos 😅

Ditch Audible, friends. Amazon doesn't need more money. Use Libby (supports public libraries) or Libro FM (supports indie bookstores) instead.

Proposal: When discussing automation, replace the notional always-on, maintenance-free robot helper you're imagining with the average real-world printer you've encountered. The more expensive and complex the printer, the more potential issues and "having a printer guy". A much better baseline.

I've been working on some flowers to expand my note cards available for wholesale, since I might not be able to order washi tape ever again.

He looks cute but woke me up at 6am knocking a houseplant off a shelf & then puking up the leaf he'd nibbled off it. Happy Monday!

These lions are probably my favorite designs from my shop update✨

SO excited about the upcoming release of "Consider the Birds," book one of The Consider Series. It was featured in "Fall 2025 Releases for Children" in Publishers Weekly: bit.ly/4jlKOcA. @eerdmansbooks.bsky.social @juliannaswaney.bsky.social #authors #KidsBooks #ChildrensBooks #PictureBooks #BookSky

Tangerine tea, from a few years ago🍊

Coming soon to my shop!

I'll be updating my shop this Saturday with new washi tape, stickers, hardcover notebooks and even, sweatshirts & mugs!

A peek at a cute book coming out later this year. I've struggled with hating how I draw birds for a long time, but I think I finally figured it out: make them round!

Finally making some progress on some new washi tape designs

How cute is this book cover? I also like the author's bio

I've been working on some designs for mugs to sell in my shop 😺 I have a few free posts up on my Patreon where you can see my inspo and a few more of the designs in progress www.patreon.com/juliannaswaney #illustrator #artist #procreate

Inside me are two wolves...and one of them is effing tired

I'm making French onion soup for the first time.🧅 Wish me luck!

Sleepy clementine 🍊 #kidlitart #illustration

A wall in my studio today. The birding bumper sticker was my late dad's 💛 #illustrator #artist

Finally started a book that's been on my tbr for a while. Should be finished in about years

Lol I just realized my first post on here wasn't the happiest sounding. I've been posting my art online in some form since the late 90s, I've seen so many platforms come & go, and I'm tired. I'm happy to be trying something new though I promise 😅 Thanks for the warm welcome! Here is another fox

Okay fine. Now seems like a good time to make an account on a non-meta owned app but I'm trying to be on my phone LESS so not sure what I'll do here!🤷‍♀️
