My name is Ieva, I am a pencil artist from Lithuania, currently based in Germany. Art has always been in my life: since childhood I‘ve been interested in different artists, art history & creative people. I’ve been drawing since I was a kid, but I started to improve my skills and comprehension about artistic work later in life. Then I chose to pursue my dream of becoming a full time artist, so I‘ve changed my profession to became a freelance artist.

​

I specialize in colored pencil portraits and I especially love drawing nature and animals. My clients are usually the ones who love animals and pets or know someone who does & want to make them a perfect personalized gift - a pet portrait. I do draw people portraits if asked. To create a colored pencil portrait I work from your provided reference photo. I draw with high-quality colored pencils. My work is as much detailed as it can be and one standard size portrait can take me from 10 to 20 (+) hours. I draw every day, it is my true passion and the way of living.
