Julia Wilken

Julia Wilken is an illustrator from South East London who has a love for storytelling and world building. She finds inspiration in her lived experiences, music, video games and anything fantasy. Her work often evokes feelings of melancholic dreaminess. Though she is mainly a digital artist, she loves turning her art into tangible objects and finding new, creative ways to do so, especially using mixed media.
