Fernanda Maya has liked drawing and painting since she can remember, which is the main reason why she became a visual designer. She decided to focus her passion on a more commercial purpose within the creative community. She believes in eclectic approaches as the best way to truly enjoy the process, and that to achieve richer work capable of connecting with others, you must let yourself be infused by numerous experiences, pieces of knowledge, and teachings.

She loves experimenting with different techniques and is currently producing her pieces exclusively using digital programs and her Cintiq. She has collaborated with brands such as Bacánika, Editorial Planeta, and the Luis Ángel Arango Library, among others. She also hugely enjoys selling her portraits and prints, as well as bringing the ideas of others to life.
