Welcome!

Hello! I'm Maggie, and this is my blog where I'll be talking about what I make each week.

A little about me: I just graduated from the University of Michigan with my BFA in Art & Design, and I'm starting down the path of a career in art. I am primarily an illustrator, working in traditional and digital media, and I make comics and zines as well. I love to read, particularly sci-fi and fantasy. One of my career goals is to someday illustrate book covers. Themes you'll see popping up in my art again and again: friendship, space / astronomy, and small everyday joys. I’ve been looking for a way to have some sort of consistency in my art practice now that I’ve left the structure of art school behind. I also want to get more comfortable sharing my art even when it’s messy or unfinished. This is my attempt to do both at once! I plan to write an entry to this blog/newsletter every week and share (just about) every piece of art I worked on that week, finished or unfinished. I'll talk about the ideas behind my art and whatever else I'm thinking about that week.

If you'd like to receive my blog posts as a newsletter in your inbox every Saturday, you can sign up at the form on the left. Thanks for following along on my journey!
