Hi I am Maaike!
Nice to meet you! My name is Maaike Rommens, and I graduated in 2020 from Avans Breda with a degree in Communication and Multimedia Design. I am a multidisciplinary creative designer with a strong focus on visual storytelling, concept development, and bringing imaginative ideas to life. I live in Breda with my husband Remco and our two Spanish rescue cats, Tosh and Marley.
“Creativity has never been a choice for me, it’s a constant urge to bring a little magic into everything I create.”
My creative process is intuitive and energetic, driven by curiosity and a strong need to create rather than a strictly structured approach. I have always been someone who cannot not create, constantly exploring new ideas, materials, and visual concepts. I experiment a lot and am largely self-taught across most of my skills, working confidently with a wide range of Adobe Creative Cloud tools.
Alongside my digital work, I also create with my hands and enjoy combining physical making with digital design, often blurring the line between both worlds. I am drawn to fantasy and storytelling, which has been a constant influence since childhood through fantasy fairs and books.
Outside of my professional work, I have a wide range of creative interests including painting, D&D, drawing, music, karate, and gaming, which all continue to feed into my visual imagination and creative energy.
