Hello! Welcome!

I’m Maggie, a Brooklyn NY based illustrator. I used to live in a big house in a small town, but now I live in a tiny apartment in a big city!

Growing up in rural Central New York, I used to obsessively draw the Powerpuff Girls on any piece of paper I could find. Fast forward many years, I graduated from Pratt Institute with a BFA in Illustration.

I’ve worked as a party decorator, unpaid intern, balloon twister, face painter, gallery assistant, cookie decorator, graphic designer, but I always come back to making colorful illustrations with a sense of humor!

My debut children's book Blobfish Throws a Party (Little Bee Books) written by Miranda Paul is out now, so go grab a copy!
