This Artist Illustrates Being Different From Other Girls

Julie Hang is an artist who specializes in character design, illustration, animation, and motion graphics. Living and working in Los Angeles, Hang has been drawing cartoons since she was a little girl. She says she loves creating art that makes people happy. However, due to her personality, she always felt like she didn’t belong because she’s “not like the other girls.”

“I was a shy, anxious kid, and had a hard time making friends,” Julie told Bored Panda. “Instead of recognizing my anxiety and trying to overcome it, I’d thought there must be something that separated me from other girls. Reading ‘me vs. other girls’ comics online validated those negative feelings and stereotypes I had towards other girls, and made me feel like it was the ‘cool’ thing to do.”

Nowadays, her work has been highly recognized in the Internet era. On her Instagram profile she has attracted over 193,000 followers and gets tens of thousands of likes on each post.
