# About me

I'm Meike Hakkaart, also known as Maquenda, a freelance Illustrator who specializes in nature and fantasy illustrations and photography.

I am a naturalist and wildlife/fantasy painter. I see beauty in the ''wild, weird and wonderful'' aspects of life.

~The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.~
- John Muir

~A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities.~
- J.R.R. Tolkien

~Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.~
- Rumi

~Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere.~
~ Carl Sagan
