Brat Cave Studio was born out of love for lowbrow and street art culture, ignited by the ever-changing and creative spirit of London, raw energy of live music and experiences picked up on travels. Ieva began her creative journey working in the events & merchandise industries where she was always surrounded by talent and cool tour merch design. Hanging out at art fairs, exhibitions and tattoo shops was also a constant source of inspiration that sparked her creativity and motivated to reconnect with her childhood love of drawing.

After finding herself stuck in an office job she no longer enjoyed, Ieva packed up her drawing tablet and sketchbooks and left London for good to travel around Southeast Asia. There she spent her time illustrating, booking her first client projects and developing design chops.

Now based in Amersfoort, The Netherlands, Brat Cave Studio specialises in illustration, brand identity and merch design, sinking teeth into frame-by-frame animation and motion graphics more recently but always staying true to their inner silly with playful and exaggerated characters, fuelled by the weird, supernatural and bold.
