Profile
Welcome to Maarten Claassen Illustrations! I am a freelance illustrator living in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. My specialism is making storyboards, character designs, editorial illustrations, comics and cartoons. My drawing style is versatile and is mostly digitally. Favorite is a humorous or realistic, classic style related to vintage animation and illustration. Also favorite is drawing and developing (and collecting) advertising characters, in many emotions, styles and environments. Besides that I really like drawing historical subjects and atmospheric scenes, cartoons or comics. Collaborate? I am always open to fine collaborations. I am happy to help you with an illustration that fits your project and reinforces your story.
