My name is Kristiāna Doroščonoka, and I am an illustrator from Rīga, Latvia, currently living by the Cornish fields in the UK. I am also known as Kriksis on the internet.

I completed an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art in 2021, and recently I achieved one of my dreams—self-publishing a non-fiction book about birds called “Birds in Colour.”

I plan to publish more books in the future and document my journey on YouTube and Patreon. I also run a small art business, and on this website, you can see more of what I have to offer.
