Julia Seal knew from the age of five what she wanted to do for a living—draw pictures! After graduating with a degree in Graphic Design and Illustration and then working in the greeting card industry (and getting covered in glitter every day!) she finally moved onto her dream job – illustrating children’s books. She lives in the countryside in the South West of England with her two children—who provide plenty of inspiration to her charming and whimsical illustrations.
