In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Sydney-based artist and surface designer Maggi McDonald. Known for her bold use of color and signature palette knife style, Maggi has always been creative.
But it wasn’t until her son started pre-school and she confronted a period of depression after suffering miscarriages, that Maggi discovered the healing power of art and she decided to study design. During her studies, Maggi discovered that painting was calling her and since that time she’s built a global art and surface pattern design business.
During this conversation, Maggi and I discovered that we share many parallels in our art journeys.  She is incredibly generous in sharing her journey and so many great tips for emerging artists in this beautiful conversation. I really hope enjoy the episode.
In this episode, we talked about:

Maggi’s form of art
How did Maggi discover her love for painting
Does living in different countries impacted Maggi’s creative evolution?
