Hi, I’m Maddy.
I’m a British-French Fine Art student based in Aberystwyth, Wales. My art practice spans a variety of different mediums, including Drawing, Painting, and Printmaking; and I’m always eager to learn new techniques and skills. My art practice is constantly shifting and evolving, however some elements have remained consistent: vivid colours, an illustrative approach, and pink sketches which peek through my finished pieces.
My work is inspired by my childhood love of books, myths and folklore, and especially etiological stories which explain the origins of a given phenomenon or object. It is this insatiable curiosity and my imagination which I credit for my romantic perspective of the world: I believe that wonder can be found in the overlooked and the ordinary. A fleeting moment, a worn object, a familiar location —each holds the potential to become something magical.
Through the fusion of narrative and visual art, I give form to my imagination, which makes it possible for me to share my stories in a way which is both compelling and beautiful.
