Julie Featherstone

Designer & Illustrator

London, United Kingdom
Over 20 years designing digitally- using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, (and more recently) Figma, to design things, on a daily basis . An East London-based sole trader, working remotely. I'm reliable, experienced and easy to work with. I mostly design layouts, illustrate things, and craft typography and photography - but also love hands-on messy painting and art too.

Obsessed with all things creative, from photography to drawing and digital design and graphics. Please give me a shout if you need a good solid designer!
