This is a place where I regularly post personal artwork, good, bad or indifferent.
The characters that crop up regularly in this blog are daughter – Flo, eldest son – Tom, second son – Hugo and third son – Xavier.
I'll try to reply wherever you comment but if I don't it's only because I'm overwhelmed with caring for my family and earning a living.
And talking about earning a living, if you need a good all round graphic designer please visit my business website to see if I can help you.
If you want to buy prints of anything you see here or have any requests please send an email to julie at julieoakleydesign dot com

This is so coloful - it makes me think of a thick forest of pine trees. I laughed out loud at your "Black & White" drawing and post! Nuns really did seem that huge and imposing when I was a child at Catholic school. I am glad I wasn't sent to boarding school like my grandmother - she was sent away to the nuns at five, and she used to tell me how it broke her heart to leave home at such a young age. I can't imagine...Anyway, I love both pieces for many reasons. I also want to say that I have so enjoyed all your beautiful artwork and their fascinating commentaries...I'm looking forward to more in the coming year. Happy New Year!
Carla thank you so much. I am so grateful to Illustration Friday for getting me going. Almost every illustration on my blog would not have happened unless I'd had the initial spur of IF to get me to start a blog. I find it difficult to carve out the time to devote to this but my life is richer with all the work I have done and with the glimpses of other lives and creativity that I've seen through all the wonderful blogs I've come across in blogland.
I love the colours you have juxtaposed together
