If poINTE sHOES Could Talk

During the process of creating this book, I reconnected with the inner Julia who once loved dancing ballet. I’d be lying if I said this book isn’t extra special to me. Working with this particular client was a wonderful experience — our communication was clear and constructive because we both shared the same goal: to make this book perfect, as it was created with passion from beginning to end.
You might notice a few differences between the final illustrations and the original sketches, as the story and text evolved a lot throughout the process. For me, this book is for all the little girls who are like I once was. I hope that when they open its pages and see my illustrations, it brings a little bit of magic to their world, just as it once did to mine.
