About:

My name is Katja de Vries. After high school I went to The Hague's KABK to follow a preperational course (of one year), I graduated in 2012 in the department of Graphic Design.

After this I started in the second year of the bachelor illustration at the KASK, in Ghent. And in 2016 I finished my masters in illustration there too.

I'm always trying to gather new knowledge and skills on different materials, techniques and fields. Such as wood, metal, fabrics, laser cutting, bookbinding, metal and web design.

Recently I've started to smith silver, thanks to Arnold van Dodewaard for teaching me!
