I'm Maggie, the artist at the center of Artifact. I have been a full time artist since 2017, after earning a BA in Business Management from Webster University.
My inspiration comes from personal nostalgia, nature, and the simple joys of life. Growing up I spent time riding horses with my grandpa, playing sports, and appreciating little things like backyard wildlife, gardening with my mom, and, of course, enjoying snacks (food is a true love of mine). These sentiments often find their way into my work.
I am drawn to both simplicity and bold colors, blending the two into style I like to call 'folk-meets-funk’
I hope you discover something uniquely inspiring here in my little corner of the internet.
Cheers!
-Maggie @ Artifact
