"Who are you?"
"To define is to limit."

and one of the birds she was
dashing against the air
trying to break its stillness
iz ptica - from birds
Hello! My name is Kaja Kajfež. I'm a freelance illustrator, visual storyteller, and creative thinker, probably better known as iz.ptica in the realms of the internet.
I'm 29 years old and I've been working as a graphic designer and later illustrator since my early teens. My artistic passion led me to get a degree in the field by finishing 'Multimedia, Design and Application' study at University North in Varazdin, Croatia.
In 2017 I established my own little studio that mainly focuses on children's book illustration, lettering, surface pattern design, and design of visual content. As a freelance illustrator, I have had the opportunity to collaborate on various projects in a number of different fields with both small and independent as well as medium to large companies.
Besides my work, I love to take long walks in nature, explore different historical periods, scroll through old books, listen to online concerts, spend time with my dog and relax with a huge cup of tea.
If you have a project in mind I'd be more then happy to hear from you so feel free to contact me.
