Circa l’autore
Lieve Maas is a visual artist and graphic designer originally from the Netherlands. Growing up, Lieve was exposed to a lot of art, thanks to her art-loving parents. Visiting galleries and museums was the family’s favorite pastime. As long as she can remember Lieve wanted to become a visual artist herself, too. She wanted to “tell stories with visuals”. However, after graduating Summa Cum Laude from the Royal Art Academy in Antwerp, Belgium, Lieve became interested in graphic design. Soon she let go of her traditional oil paints and enrolled in Amsterdam’s Graphic Design Academy. After graduation, she landed a graphic design job at a publishing house in Amsterdam. In 2006 love moved her to the USA, to Portland, Oregon. The move to her new country gave Lieve the drive to start her graphic design studio Bright Light Graphics, where she offers book design and brand identity design services.
