Julien Chung

Julien Chung is a designer and illustrator who makes pictures for children’s books. Julien has earned accolades for his illustrations from 3x3 magazine, the American Society of Illustrators, Applied Arts, and the Bologna Children’s Book Fair, to name a few. In addition to his favorite childhood comics, Julien draws influence from the bright, minimalistic colors of Henri Matisse, the refined designs of Milton Glaser, and quirky animals everywhere. 

Julien likes chocolate ice cream (preferably with chocolate chunks), sketching with rainbow pencils (you never know what color the line will be), and dogs. He lives in Montreal with his wife. Even though Montreal is full of skyscrapers, there’s a park nearby with squirrels, woodpeckers, deer, and Canada geese. Julien likes to draw them all.
