Hi, I’m Maja!
I’m a surface pattern designer, educator, and creative business simplifier. I help passionate creatives boost their unique design style, master pattern design in Procreate, and turn their art into income—without the overwhelm.
Over 100,000 students have grown their skills and moved past perfectionism through my fun, easy-to-follow classes. But I don’t just teach design—I help creative entrepreneurs simplify the business side with AI tools, so they can spend more time creating and less time burning out.
Let’s make your creative business feel lighter, more fun, and totally doable.

Use AI to Simplify Your Creative Biz—Without Losing Your Spark
You love creating—but the admin, content, and business stuff? Not so much.
That’s where my AI Tools for Creatives come in. I’ve designed these tools to help artists, illustrators, and surface designers like you simplify your workflow, show up online, and stay consistent without burning out.
These aren’t techy tools made for marketers—they’re tested by a real solo biz owner (that’s me!) and designed to support your creativity first.
Say Goodbye to Overwhelm and Frustration! 👋
Do you love creating patterns, but feel frustrated and overwhelmed by the process? Do you wish you could simplify your workflow and create patterns more efficiently? Are you tired of getting stuck in creative blocks and struggling to find your unique style? You're not alone, and that's why I created the Pattern Rebels membership.
I Know! Creating Patterns Can be a Struggle 🤯
Imagine being able to easily create stunning patterns that stand out in a crowded market. With my exclusive Pattern Toolkit, you'll get everything you need to create professional patterns in Procreate with ease - even if you're a beginner.
“The Pattern Toolkit is probably one of the best, simplest, and most efficient tools I've found for pattern making! I love how these simple templates can accomplish so very much!! I haven't even made it halfway through the course yet, but I've already got SO many new patterns to add to my Spoonflower shop!” Jennifer
I’m here for you!
If we haven’t met before, I'm Maja Faber 👋 I've been in your shoes! Yes, I'm talking about YOU. I've been frustrated, overwhelmed, and wanting to give up more times than I can count. Learning a new skill is hard! I know the struggle 🤯
After spending years of trial and error, trying to find my style and my unique path in the surface pattern design industry, I found my love for creating patterns in Procreate 🌸 My creativity started to blossom, and I haven't looked back since then.
I've helped over 100K+ students grow their creative practice and overcome creative blocks. I'm excited to help you do the same, and to save you those years of trial and error!
