Vibrant and Bold Illustrations by Mary Maka

Mary Maka, a lion-inspired artist, has returned with her signature surreal worlds full of bold colors, dreamy gradients, and whimsical characters.

Her artistic journey began with formal training in design, painting, and bookmaking, eventually evolving into a unique style that blends illustration with graphic and print techniques. Since refocusing her work in 2019, she’s partnered with major brands like Google and Adobe, and contributed to outlets such as The Washington Post. Nature and narrative remain central to her work, now expanded into animation and directing through her internationally showcased Endless Forest project.
