Julia is the first work directly inspired by a real life person and their own identity key. Julia defines herself through her love of trees, identifying them as the one thing that makes her truly happiest. This work is an homage to that, a representation of an imagined happy place through its softness and resemblence to a middle-grade graphic novel style. The addition of quilling as a multidimensional element and distinct shape provides the work with a fantastical, imaginary feel.
