MY NAME IS JULIA
Artist behind Verna Artcraft
Verna was the name of my late grandmother, a ray of sunshine who was great with her hands and caring for plants. When trying to think of a name for my own creative projects her name quickly came to mind and so Verna Artcraft was born, with me Julia Lillqvist as the artist behind it all.
Creative portfolio
What I make by hand
01
Embroidery & Textile Art
All handmade using recycled materials. Previously sold through my webshop, now only through custom orders.
02
Illustration & Graphic Design
I draw and paint a lot by hand and often digitalize these illustrations to use in my graphic design.
03
Interior Design & Styling
I have always had an interest for interior design and have spent the past 3 years renovating my dream home.
From webshop to a creative space for growth and experimentation
What was and will be
Verna Artcraft started as a side business, and turned into a webshop where I sold my handmade textile and embroidery art during the pandemic. As the world opened up again I went back to working as a photographer and Verna once more turned into a side business, exploring other creative projects like illustration, painting, graphic design and much more.
