Thanks so much!

Dracula.

Haha, thanks so much! I've been having a lot of fun with them!

My illustration for The Crystal Crypt, one of the Philip K. Dick stories that's landed in the public domain

Really brilliant! I don't often come across games that feel like they're presenting something new to me to the degree this does

Ah, thanks so much!

The Troll King, his daughter and the prince from afar

Very lovely!

Thanks a bunch!

Thanks so much!

Playing in the summertime.

Tigger thinks Pooh's tablecloth is a living creature and gets it before it can get him.

Another scene from the second Winnie-the-Pooh book (believe it or not, Tigger's only been public domain since 2024).

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard day! I'm Julian, an illustrator/writer seeking representation or the right project to collaborate on. Feel free to reach out if you're interested in working with me on a picture or board book!

Illustrating a scene from The Maltese Falcon.

The young gunman Wilmer is held back after Sam provokes him.

I used Home of the Underdogs, but a site called Abandonia was the one I think I personally spent the most time on! That DOS emulation/preservation scene had a huge impact on me

Thanks so much!

At the moment, this is just a hobby project! These illustrations come from a little public domain book club newsletter I run: illustratingthepublicdomain.substack.com
