Julia Lacquement is a multi-talented
artist with a
passion for creative endeavors.
She is perhaps best
known for her work in the comics
industry, where she was
the first colorist to receive
royalties. Noted for her
quality, speed, and reliability,
she has worked on dozens
of comics, among them Berni
Wrightson's CAPTAIN STERN --
which garnered her two Harvey
nominations -- and DC
Comics' LONGBOW HUNTERS. Recently,
she has been working
for Milestone Media on HARDWIRE
and ICON, repeat winners
of the Parent's Choice awards.
She is also responsible
for the brilliant color on the
box cover, ads, and about
one-fourth of the cards in the
new XENOPHILE trading card
game created by Phil Foglio.
In addition to her comics work,
Julia is well known for
her paintings and illustrations,
which may be found in
Seattle-area galleries. She
is a premiere watercolorist,
although she often works with
acrylics for the intensity
of color they provide. Although
tending toward fantasy
and science fiction themes,
she has also painted numerous
Asian still-lives and, recently,
some Horror pieces. She
has been well received on the
science fiction and fantasy
convention circuit for more
than a decade, where she has
been Artist Guest of Honor several
times and has
repeatedly won awards for Best
of Show, Best Color, Best
of Class, and Best Humor.
In the past few years, Julia
has been branching out into
black-and-white illustration.
Her work my be found in
numerous publications, most
notably MARION ZIMMER
BRADLEY'S FANTASY MAGAZINE,
where she has appeared
regularly. Difficult to contain,
Julia is also known for
her jewelry, sculpture, and
fashion designs. She is
currently owned by a small (very
small) black panther,
with whom she shares her studio
in the Cascade foothills.
