Maxine is an illustrator from Germany who started drawing as soon as she could hold a pen and hasn’t stopped since. She finished her Bachelor’s degree in Intermedia Design with the hopes of working in the game industry, but soon realized that her passion lied more with illustration, picture books and graphic novels.

She takes inspiration from her favorite movies, TV shows, games, books and whatever she currently is interested in. Her art is also influenced by Studio Ghibli movies, Eyvind Earle and early animation from around the world.

Her dream is it to illustrate a book that someone will fondly remember as a part of their childhood.
