Julia Quandt is a Brazilian 2D artist, focused in Character Design, Story Development and traditional animation. She’s a BFA at the Woodbury University. She likes writing comics and videogames. She was born in the US but went to Brazil for many years and through that experience she started to focus a lot in creating art related to the story of Brazil.
(Be sure to watch the video interview below!)
When Julia moved back to Brazil she felt a bit as an outsider, feeling like she was an american, but after many years of living in Brazil, when she came back to the US, she felt as an outsider as well, feeling like a Brazilian, and by having this unique experience, she decided to focus on the stories only she could tell and bring this experience into her art.
