About The Artist
known by Kayla, KJoyo and Kj
Illustrator, Marketing Media Designer, and Creative Enthusiast
For most of her life, creativity and artwork were passionate hobbies for KJoyo, more preferably referred to as KJ. Her professional creative career took off in 2020 when she began designing and selling custom works on Redbubble as an Independent Artist. In 2021, KJ started classes at the Community College of Vermont and graduated with a certificate in Graphic Design. Soon after this, she began freelancing. In December 2022, she obtained her Associate of Arts degree in Design and Media Studies from the Community College of Vermont.
KJ's inspiration stems mainly from the surrealist style and similar media. She also often takes inspiration from various topics of popular culture, the study of Astrology, the Occult, fantasy, and her own personal life as her family housecat, Dean, sometimes appears in her works. Her illustration style is influenced both by American animation and cartoons and yet also by a more stylized, Japanese anime/manga aesthetic.

Illustrations and Portraits
My main works consist of digital artwork. Some things I illustrate are original fictional characters and pop-culture inspired stylized works. I also provide digitized portraits, which are detail oriented and true to muse.

Using attention-grabbing colors, and catchy slogans- I create memorable and true to brand marketing (and custom logos) that can be used in print, email marketing, and social media.
