I have been following and admiring Julia Pott’s work for quite some time now, but it’s about time I shared it with all of you. You will quickly notice that Julia is a lover of animals. Kitties, puppies, polar bears and foxes play main characters in her art, and a few of their favourite activities include: prancing about, holding hands, and dancing in forests together. What’s not to love about them? They’re absolutely adorable in the coolest way ever!

Her most recent projects include: a series of short ads for the television series Skins from Treat Studios (the creative collective she’s a part of); a signed limited edition 5×7 print in support of Haiti relief; and a multimedia project for the band The Decemberists called Here Come the Waves: The Hazards of Love Visualized at UCLA’s Royce Hall in Los Angeles. Julia’s prints/illustrations can also be found on pillows, totes, and aprons. Make sure to check out her personal portfolio site, blog, and photostream to follow up on other current projects.

And now I leave you with the very first project I saw of Julia’s: My First Crush, which was her final film at Kingston University. It’s an animated film based on interviews with people about their first crushes. Enjoy!
