“Is she her long-lost twin separated at birth? A doppelgänger conjured from moonlight? An alien wearing her face? She can’t be sure… but they met on this quiet autumn night, and they seem to be perfect dance partners. 💃💃So let this moment linger a little longer, before the night fades away.”

Hello #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm Julian, a queer 🏳️‍⚧️ picture book illustrator working in gouache. I've climbed out of the final art mines to wave around a little flag that says "let me illustrate a book about frogs or bugs!" 🌌 julianplum.com 💌 hello@julianplum.com #kidlitart #picturebooks #art 🐸 🌿

Gouache painting in lush dark green and blue featuring a cross-section of a pond at night. A green harlequin-patterned frog with a hint of tadpole tail climbs half out of the water into the cattails, looking at the stars. In the darkness lurks a taloned heron foot. The water is full of tadpoles, pond weed, insect larvae, and frog eggs. A single bright mayfly hangs on a cattail leaf above the frog's head.

it’s #kidlitartpostcard day! Thought I’d share something sweet and summery in colored pencil. I don’t know about you, but these days I yearn for some peace and quiet. And a good climbing tree. I’m a picture book illustrator based outside of philly. Seeking representation! #kidlitart

sometimes you gotta re-work a piece. learning what feels like “me” when it comes to watercolor :) Any preferences? #watercolorillustration #art #kidlitart

Slightly reworking an old piece that I still adore for my new portfolio. I love drawing multigenerational scenes… #workinprpgress #kidlitart #aapiillustrator #wip #art #illustration #kimchi #watercolor

An illustration of a korean family making kimchi. The grandmother is in a yellow smock and pink gloves. She is spreading red sauce on an oversized nappa cabbage leaf. The boy is pouring the sauce onto the leaf. There is a toddler in a diaper eating the fresh kimchi.

my number one art tip is to train yourself like an athlete. Like running; some do it as a hobby bc it’s healthy and fun. Some join clubs and run 5ks. Some run marathons and get sponsorships and create a career. Artists need to work out and stay in shape too! Practice fundamentals! Exercise!

Today I had to open the old house up for the plumber and I got a flat tire and my matcha latte was really just essence of green milk and I only had time to have two bites of lunch -but I also went to the most beautiful arboretum and did some fun sketches. a win is a win #art #drawoutside #sketchbook

Yesterday was surprisingly lovely and productive. A family friend cut rhododendrons from her garden and we put them in a blue vase. My mom’s neighbor helped us transplant a giant oak leaf hydrangea. And I saw a robin’s nest.

there’s nothing more humbling than stumbling upon a very expensive, very unused set of #sennelieroilpastels you bought two years ago when you thought you were “that kind of artist”

At last it’s time to say goodbye. Packing up the old #artstudio and heading to a new home (one with more natural light!). Idk who I thought I was when I believed I’d have the chutzpah to film myself moving for ✨content✨. I don’t know that girl.
