Available to hire
Hi, I’m Maximilien Van de Wiele, a Belgian comic book artist born in Antwerp on 1994-01-17. I’m passionate about storytelling across media—the ninth art—and I love bringing characters and worlds to life using a mix of traditional and digital tools.
Most of my projects revolve around narrative illustration for magazines, galleries, and events. I regularly post inked and digital experiments on my Instagram and portfolio, and I enjoy exploring counterfactual histories and character design across different styles.
