My name is Maria, I’m an Oxford-based freelance graphic designer and illustrator with a great passion and dedication to what I do. I specialise in branding, infographics and editorial design for both print and digital use. I do all kinds of products like flyers, posters, banners, logos, annual reports, merchandise and digital design and see each project I’m involved in as an opportunity to do some amazing work that connects with the intended audience.
In my spare time I enjoy getting my hands busy with traditional sign painting, hand lettering and illustration as if I’m not building recycled robots and racing cars with my kids. I also enjoy singing, especially in harmony.
