kiana lin is a lover
of all things art!

By day (and sometimes night 😁) she is a graphic designer, illustrator, and screenprinter. When not designing, she loves to dabble in many other forms of expression and creativity, like sewing, yarn-work, charcoal, mixology! She also enjoys finding new music, attending local shows, playing board games, hiking local trails, and cooking (and eating) delicious food. More than her hobbies, she is a big advocate for personal growth through body and mind.

Kiana believes that beauty exists in all places. She is often inspired by the little details that are often overlooked–like the way a bug moves its limbs or the silhouette of a shadow. Her biggest goal is to conceive art and design that can connect, create community, and inspire growth. She wants to make a difference in the world.

Though I’m a “born-and-raised” Peorian, I’ve only recently come to appreciate the small-big town vibes of this city that have been created and cultivated by the people who care for this place they call home. In the past few years, I’ve met both locals and transplants that encourage my creativity with their lively spirits and blooming ideas. As I continue to make art and meet new people, I wish to share the warm-hearted spirit of Peoria!
