Maaike Canne is a Rotterdam-based illustrator and visual artist with a focus on architecture, design, and nature. Her bold, color-driven work explores the interplay between interior and exterior spaces, balancing abstraction and representation. She works across editorial, murals, and autonomous paintings, moving between commercial and personal projects.
