Maia uses her art as a means to communicate her beliefs, speak out against injustices and raise consciousness to causes that mean a lot for her. Check out her Instagram as well as her Etsy store where she sells her unique flower earrings. Join us as we dive deep into the thoughts and creativity process that is Maia Faddoul.

 I think of my style of drawing as "High Contrast'.

My aesthetic is vivid, high-contrast and colorful, often with a subtle social justice message hidden somewhere. I'm an absolute color lover and kind of a minimalist with regards to my style of art.

 What is the key in creating your illustration?

One of the most important aspects of my art is to create work that expresses my convictions and values. My personality isn't the most outgoing or outgoing person, and so I often utilize my work as a way to express my beliefs, speak out about injustices and raise awareness to causes that mean a much to me.

Digital Drawing Classes

Maia uses drawing tablets and Procreate to create digital portraits. In her Illustrating Expressive Portraits in Procreate class she will share her experiment-filled process to creates colorful, vibrant and striking portraits.

Be amazed by Maia's beautiful work that she has posted on her Instagram as well as her adorable flower earrings avaliable via Etsy in a bunch of vibrant colors.
