Series Artist: Mary Maka

Lisbon, Portugal

Mary Maka is an illustrator and animator who lives in Portugal. Her work bridges characters, illustration and animation. At the age of five she had a dream to become an artist and her  parents helped me develop this passion and inspired her career. Following her dream, Mary entered the Academy of Arts and Design in Portugal. Nature is the main source of inspiration for Maka’s art, with all its forms and flow. Plants and animals are often in her illustrations. And when she needs an interesting hero? I know where to look — the subway. She has met all of her  characters there.
