Maxene Brown
A bit of info about Maxene, also my favourite niece! Maxene Brown Illustrator designs cards and prints, and she enjoys working on illustrations for children’s books and school projects. I hope you enjoy her work.
Here is a quick Hello! From The Artist.
Hi, I am an illustrator based in Birmingham, in the United Kingdom. I have been glued to my pencils and paintbrushes since I can remember. I find ways to include daily inspirations, memories and experiences in my work by using traditional and digital mediums.
I am available for personal commissions and bigger projects. Please get in touch if you fancy working together!

Custom Work
Maxene creates beautiful customised digital portraits, perfect for friends, family, or even yourself. Each portrait is A4 in size by default, but if you’d like something different, just let her know when placing your order. You can also choose between portrait and landscape orientation to suit your style.
The process is simple and enjoyable. Maxene will first send a pencil outline so you can approve the likeness before she begins adding colour. Once the colouring is complete, a final draft is sent for your review to ensure everything is just right. The finished artwork is then delivered digitally.
Portraits typically take 1–2 weeks to complete. If you’d like a printed version, please allow additional time for printing. These personalised pieces make wonderful gifts and lasting keepsakes, combining charm, care, and a unique touch that standard prints simply cannot match.
How it works
Email over your main reference photograph, as well as other photos, so Maxene can get a general idea of what you look like. The photos have to be clear, please don’t send blurry photos, pixelated photos, photos with filters (like Snapchat or Instagram) or cropped-off photos of the face.
Draw
Maxene will then outline your portrait. She will then send it over to you to make sure you are happy, and if you would like any changes made, then this is the stage for that.
Coloured
When Maxene has coloured the portrait, she will send over a draft to make sure you are happy with the final image and to check little details like hair and skin colour are correct.
Happy
Once you are happy with the artwork, Maxene will send the portrait to you via WeTransfer. If you have selected the printed option, she will post it to you. This is why it is important to let her know which format you would like at the start! Why not head over to Maxene’s Etsy Shop and have a look at her work? Visit the link at the bottom of this page.
