Kimiya Justus is an illustrator with Iranian, columbian and german roots, born in Hamburg, now lives in Berlin. She discovered her passion for art and design at an early age, which she has now turned into her profession. She completed her Bachelor of Arts in Illustration in 2019 and has since developed a versatile style. With clear lines and intense color design, she expresses emotions and stories in her motifs. Feminist themes in particular run like a common thread through her work and make her a strong voice in illustration.
Kimiya works primarily digitally with Procreate, but also likes to use analogue methods when she lets her creativity run free. Her way of working is characterized by structure, speed and open communication. The aim is always to combine her clients' visions with her personal style. Her focus is on portrait, editorial, food and commercial illustrations.
