It's been 4 years since this little girl found her way to my paper. So many characters and drawings have been drawn since. I have learned so much but still there are things I want to go back to and do more of. #evagorilla @bookielise #liserønne @forlagetcarlsen #kidlit #børnebøger #KIDLITDK #childrensillustration #childrensillustrator #zarahjuul

This week I found time to finish one more wall on my kids school sheed. Colour really brightens you day and sparks you positive mood. I'm so happy I took the time to do this and that parents and teachters supported the idea. #colourmakespeoplehappy #wallart #diy #schoolart #wallpainting #zarahjuul #karleboudeskole

This is a story about me and one of my best friends @morsommor . Once a young women living in Copenhagen the capital of Denmark enjoying life and youth, now a kick ass wise women, mother and theta healer. We lived in appartments next to each other and often When returning from work or whatever I would go to her place before even entering mine. It was the perfect way of ‘coming home’. It was one bedroom apartments and in the ‘livingroom’ she had an old armchair. I would come in not taking my overcoat off sitting in the chair talking about my day and asking about hers. Maybe drinking tea from her trips to China. It was So safe and almost home that Sometimes I would fall asleep. Sometimes before she’d boiled water for tea 😊✨zzzzzzz ———————————— #bestfriends #bestfriendgoals #graphicnovel #graphicnovelart #comics #zarahjuul #best_of_illustrations #illustration_daily #illustrationartists #illustration_art #bff #4panelcomic #fourpanelcomic #makeartthatsells

This is still a little bit a secret. It’s a present, and a comic and a style I’ve been wanting to explore for a long time. Love this graphic look that comes with few colours 😍. I’ll share the final pice later, when the present is recieved. Hopefully the birthday child is to busy birthdaying to look at IG. #birthdaypresent #comic #womenofillustration #zaahjuul #friends #storytelling #editorialillustration #graphicnovel #graphicnovelart #illustration_best
