More about Maddie
What’s inspiring me lately?
Lately, I've really been into infusing art into as many every day items as possible. Potholders? Yes. Coasters? Oh yeah. Hats? Let’s get crazy with it. It feels good to put handmade, creative options out into a big box store world. I’m still doing fine art, but there’s something really invigorating about going small— embroidering my drawings and putting them on handmade every day items. All for art and art for all.
FAQs
Where can I see your past work?
I’ve cataloged as much as I can find (I wasn’t so great at documentation early on!) and organized it here.
Do you accept commissions?
Sometimes! Although I’m not a commission-focused artist, I do accept projects from time to time. If you’d like to commission me to work on a special project, reach out to me at maddie@whatmaddness.com and let me know the following:
1. What you’d like done (drawing, painting, embroidery, sewing, etc.)
2. Any dimensions (e.g. a 24” x 24” painting)
3. If it’s a pet portrait or something similar, please attach reference photos
4. Your timeframe
Do you only ship to the U.S.?
I ship everywhere! The shipping functionality is a bit funky on WordPress, so if there is something you’d like to buy, but your country isn’t listed as an option please reach out to me and I’ll update it.
When do you release new work?
I try to create work weekly and upload it every Friday by 5 p.m. MST.
I can’t buy a painting now, but want to support— what’s the best way?
There are so many ways to support without directly buying a piece! Send a supportive message, share my work on social media, or buy me a coffee to keep me creatin’ (here) are all ways to support without buying work. If you want to buy work, but I haven’t created the piece you want yet, sign up for my mailing list to be alerted of new drops so that you don’t miss out on the one.
Where can I find you on social media?
I’ve slowed my roll on social media. Although I technically have an Instagram account (@whatmaddness), I am most active on Bluesky. You can find my profile here.
