Welcome to
Maru's webpage!

I’m Angie, a 26-year-old queer artist and webwhatever based in the US. You might know me as Star, Maru, or starry_maru.

I’ve been drawing for over a decade. Art is my entire life! I enjoy drawing my little OCs and thinking about cool backstories. I’m currently writing the script for a webcomic for them. I also regularly attend my city’s figure drawing class and used to be heavily involved in 4chan’s /i/ Oekaki board before moving here.

I made this website as a personal creative archive. The content here is mainly illustrations, animations, and short writings centered around my main OC universe, HEXAQUEST. Everything here is 100% fictional, but my characters have some aspect of me embedded in them. You can do whatever with them, but please be respectful.

I took HTML classes in elementary school, but never really did anything with what I learned until 2023, when I made a rudimentary site on Neocities just to see if I could. I didn’t start to ramp up until mid-2026, when I realized I needed a place to showcase my creative work that isn’t Discord or Twitter. I take inspiration from other artists’ personal sites.
