Julia's Super Cute, Campus USA Collegiate Collection

April 12, 2023

Over the past four years, I have created over four hundred illustrations featuring the unique campus culture, iconic buildings and landscape of some of America's  finest universities, colleges and schools. I have now just curated these as a Collegiate Collection, available to view on my online store, with a one button click through to each collegiate campus store.

 

My collaboration with Chicago based manufacturer, Neil Enterprises, became a significant part of their Neil Varsity Line and with that, best selling gift and homeware ranges in campus stores across the nation, such as this vibrant orange and blue collection at Syracuse University. 

Water bottles, canvas tote bags, fridge magnets, kids colouring in kits, blankets and aprons are some of the many products that Team Neil make for collegiate stores, printed with my spirited artwork in a patriotic 2 colour palette.

I have drawn cheerleaders and football players, campus coffee houses and graduation ceremonies, mascots and pennants, emblazoned with the sports team or university name. And I have loved drawing every single one of them, whether it's a small community college, such as Umpqua in Oregon ...

 

Or one of the many HBCU educational institutions I have drawn, such as Jackson State University ...

Or Ivy League universities, including Cornell where I carried out a live art event last year.

Through the artwork I have drawn, I have inadvertently created a unique, creative archive of America's higher educational institutions, which is now available to see on my online shop. Each image links through to the campus store where it's possible to buy products printed with my art for each university or college. 

If you can't find your alma mater in my Collegiate Collection then it may be on my design schedule and will be added later this year or if not, please ask your campus store to collaborate with me and hopefully, together we can make it happen :-)
