Maja

I am a lover of art and words - so I am a lover of life.
Graphic designer, writer, teacher (German literature and language as well as Geography) and mother have been and are my main occupations.
In the last years I created mostly drawings with black pen and words found their way into them - and became part of the drawing. Words became more and more crucial to my way of finding a subject to draw. My drawings wanted some color and so color started appearing. I am getting more interested in the use of different techniques since I am self-taught. I started to experiment with water colours and am currently learning a lot.
Just recently I became aware of my wish to write a novel. Funny that I realized this just a few months ago since I have been writing my whole life and telling stories is part of who I am. And of course I started telling stories to my son - so, yes, I want to create an album book just for him, because I know what he loves in a book and it´s so much fun to see his growing love for stories.

I am so greatefull to be able to develope all these skills with workshops here.

I want to be a full time artist - writer - creator -, if you were to ask me what I dream about.
