about me

Hello! I’m Krystin (a.k.a. IllustrativeForce).

I’m Krystin — an illustrator based in Columbia, SC, where creativity has always been my compass. My work blends playful and dark, whimsical and bold, bringing stories to life across print and product. Let’s create something together that feels as brilliant as it looks.

a little more about me

I’ve been drawing ever since I could hold a crayon (and a Sharpie—ask my parents and they’ll show you where I left some permanent marks in their house). That drawing spark never left me.

Today, I work as an illustrator who thrives on detail, storytelling, some mix of light and dark in every piece.

I’m based in Columbia, SC, and I love creating art that feels alive. Whether it’s a label you can’t ignore, a shirt people can’t stop wearing, or an illustration that feels like it has a heartbeat. My favorite projects are the ones that invite personality (and some humor) into the design, where art becomes a part of someone’s world.

Illustration

From textured pieces to whimsical monsters, illustration is my core where I explore character, mood, and imagination.
