Julianna Litkei – Designer

Illustrator and graphic designer focusing on children's books and character design. Working both with traditional and digital methods.🌱

Overview

Hi, my name is JuLi, I’m a Sweden based Hungarian illustrator and designer with a big heart for children’s culture storytelling and nature. Through my work, I seek to express and trigger kindness, compassion, joy and playfulness.

I have a background in Graphic Design and I've recently graduated as a Child Culture Designer at HDK-Valand – Design and Crafts Academy in Gothenburg, Sweden.

I have more than 5 years of experience as a freelance illustrator during which time I have worked on a range of different illustration projects, including children’s book illustrations, cover design, editorial illustrations, visual identities and more.

I'm passionate about children's literature and I truly believe in the importance and power of illustrations as means of visual communication.

I work both with traditional and digital illustration methods, and I'm always open to new adventures.
