Business Illustrations and Graphics
Your Soulful Illustration starts here. I LISTEN to you. I get inside your vision and help you manifest this into reality, by bringing to life your Business Spirit and then transforming this soulful brand into different guises so you can use them in print and online. Take a look at who I have been working with recently. If you resonate with my art and illustration style, get in touch. Know that this is wholesome down-to-earth illustration, which starts off with sketching, pens and pencils, professional markers.
Anna from Annamal
I had the real honour of working with Anna Low from Annamal, developing her Business Muse as well as designing her website Annamal, holistic health and healing for animals.
Anna is a heart centred complementary practitioner, teacher and healer. Based in Bournemouth, UK.
She has been working in the field of complementary therapies for 20+ years and is now focusing all her experience and attention to work with Dogs.
Anna approached me to create her Business Muse and help her illustrate and visualise her new business.
I was lucky enough to have Anna to myself for an hour or so in Liverpool - usually it's Skype but she was visiting family here so we got the chance to hang out over coffee and talk about the essence of her business image.
We chatted about the colours she was excited by and the feelings and symbols she wanted to be weaved into the image. I invited her to create a Pinterest Board for me to get a real feeling of the energy behind her business.

We talked DOGS, LOVE and HEALING - my kinda coffee break ; )
As a TOTEM for her business, we decided to create Annamal Anna as the central piece of the brand and when I sent her the sketches she was so excited.
It was in this initial excitement that she realised she wanted her dogs to be with her - Teacher and Wizard they were a huge part of this new business, her life.
When she saw them with her >>>
"Completely Love it!!!! I love that both T&W are with me, I couldn't do this without them."
Anna now has a totem for her new business, Annamal.
It was at this point that a few more additions were made - Teacher and Wizard and extra hair to her side parting!!
The added sketch with Teacher and Wizard!
After this original totem illustration, I then began preparing the file for uploading and printing as a business card as this is what Anna wanted in the first instance. We chose deluxe business cards with heavy card stock so the image stands for herself and the card stock backs this up with luxury.
Anna's Testimonial about the Business Muse process.
When I met with Jules to discuss my image and logo for by new business, I had no idea really what I wanted.
She led me by the hand on a journey of discovery to create a Muse image of myself as I am the integral part of my service. I had a name for the project, but no image.
Jules was able to guide and hold the space for me to capture the pure essence of myself and what I bring to my work. I have been a complementary therapy practitioner for 20 years and now focusing all my skills and expertise to working with Dogs. I created Annamal, with Annamal Anna as the focus point.
After selecting several words and characteristics to describe my vision, Jules very quickly sketched out my Muse.....Wow, I loved her straight away !!
Powerful, Cool, Sassy, Sexy, Direct, Compassionate, Loving... Absolutely perfect image.
We then agreed to add in my dogs by my side, at this point I was even more deeply moved by the accuracy of Jules' drawings of my dogs, Teacher and Wizard. Absolutely spot on, I couldn't believe how amazing this was.
Jules is efficient, precise, inspired and truly listens to what is required to produce the essence and spirit of the person she is creating.. And the dogs are on another level.
So deeply grateful to you Jules. I hand my business card over with such excitement and everyone has commented on how brilliant the image is.

"The beautiful thing about a truly successful relationship with your designer is that they get inside your head and know what you want even before you've even considered what it is that you might want! Take my logo for instance. I gave Julia absolutely no guidance and she nailed it in one attempt! Isn't it totally fabulous!" Together we created ecourse covers, Facebook graphics, website headers and logos. The rest as they say is history but the journey was absolutely idyllic and I hope to stay forever in contact with this beautiful and talented lady." Jodee Peevor. Online and Totally Fabulous
Your Business Spirit Muse
The Willows Raven - 'Miss Evangeline'
When Sheila from The Willow's Raven approached me to create her Business Spirit Muse, we began with my set of Q's and a Pinterest board - which is where I always like you to begin. We'll talk fonts, styles and colour story.
We get VERY specific. This a beautiful process with back and forth chats via email/ facebook / Skype/What's App (depending what works best for you?). I will keep you updated all the step of the way - I never just 'create' without showing you how she's BECOMING as I want you to feel that she's the right Muse for you. So EXPECT photos via your phone. Miss Evangeline, badass healer and her Mantra 'That which you seek is already within you,' were born out of this process and within 3 days The Howe Magic began as Sheila took delivery of 250 postcards. Now for the magic to continue. This is soulful branding. |
Do get in touch so we can chat about your Business Spirit Muse.

The becoming of Miss Evangeline
"From the very beginning, the process of creating my Business Spirit Muse was a joy. Julia provides phenomenal customer service, and ensures you are included in every step of the process. Even though it is Julia's hands and talent that created her, I always felt that my opinions, desires, and dreams for Miss Evangeline were valued and honored. From the first sketches that were sent through each step of the process, I felt empowered and involved. There are simply not enough words to describe how pleased I am to have had this opportunity, or for the love I have for the remarkable finished product. My business now has its own Muse, and I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend this to any woman in business.
Thank you Julia for creating such an incredible vision of power and grace." Sheila. The Willow's Raven (go visit this grounded healer, intuitive messenger and see her sacred space on Facebook.

Daring Wise Women for Gwynn Raimondi
"Working with Julia was an easy and beautiful experience. I had seen her work in various groups online, and I knew that I wanted a Muse Mantra for the virtual women's circle I was offering. I contacted her to discuss the process and she was speedy, friendly and professional in her response. Within a week I had a beautiful, original, Muse Mantra to print and place in my welcome pack for my program participants. I highly recommend working with Julia and I personally am looking forward to working with her on future projects." Gwynn

I am delighted to have worked with Kira Jean to complete 8 illustrations for the chapters of her book. The brief from Kira was relating to the chapters of her book called "Soul in the City." A book for the modern day woman in Dubai, but equally it is for women all over the world, living within a city. About the book: Now more than ever, we're noticing the subtle, yet incessant, effect of being disconnected from ourselves. In this age of technology and information, we are at risk of being easily distracted and influenced and losing a moment-to-moment connection to ourselves. As a result we're finding it hard to know what we really want, how to make it happen and our motivation for doing so. Learn How to survive and thrive in the city in this easy-to-ready guidebook. |
"I came across Jules work when someone in an online business forum recommended her to me. In the beginning I had no idea if I could explain the kind of illustrations I required for my book, however Jules was incredibly patient and helpful as we worked together on the illustrations. For me I had a very specific idea of what I wanted, and I was so happy that Jules was able to bring it to life for me through her work. Jules was incredibly professional, supportive, and kind. I felt like I was working with a friend, and that she was just as passionate about my book and the illustrations as I was. In the beginning I had not intended to include illustrations in my book, but I am so glad I did. Jules has a wonderful way of bringing ideas and people to life through her work, and I felt in good hands during the whole process. If you have the chance to work with Jules snap up the opportunity fast. Jules' beautiful, ethereal, soulful illustrations are such an incredible gift to the world." Kira Jean
It's PUBLISHED!!!
Update 5 August 2015. It is finally here. Kira sent me a copy of Soul in the City and it is such a great gem of a book. Full of insights and ways to invite more soul into your city. To see my illustrations within are even more special for me.

"I'm so glad I found Jules and asked her create my Muse Mantra. She really paid attention to the details I shared with her to create the perfect image that would represent who I am as woman and as a coach. I use my Muse Mantra for inspiration in my emails and newsletters for my business and I love knowing that my readers are getting an accurate portrayal of who I am. Jules did a fantastic job and made the process really fun and easy. I would definitely recommend her to work to anyone who wants images and portraits filled with beauty and soul." Mimi
