Proud to be a @MiuMiu girl 🥹🎀✨!! This past Proud to be a @MiuMiu girl 🥹🎀✨!! This past week I reprised my role for 16hrs of live sketching at the brand’s stunning 57th St boutique. The brief was to capture the clientele in the city of the event in a sartorial fashion sketch. And since we were Uptown, we landed on the iconic Art Deco skyscraper, the Chrysler Building, as our backdrop of choice. I was SO beyond inspired by the personal style of the portrait recipients; I think I may have done some of my strongest live artwork ever these past two days!! Still pinching myself that I get to call this dream brand a client!!

All my love, xx MM
Alright, my loves, this is it!! The final post fro Alright, my loves, this is it!! The final post from my partnership with @MarriottIntl Peru, featuring the remaining original artworks I created from my journey there this past August 🥹🖼️💗🦙🇵🇪✨. The first piece is an homage to the otherworldly magical @JWMarriottCusco and my two new besties, Panchita & Chaska. They are the resident baby alpacas who greeted me every morning and evening there and made my stay so unforgettable. 

The second illustration is a tribute to the serenity and tranquility experienced while staying at @HotelTamboDelInka, in the heart of the Sacred Valley. And for my final piece, I of course wanted to capture the once-in-a-lifetime journey to Machu Picchu, where I had a chance encounter with a family of llamas roughly 8,000 feet above sea level 😭🫶🏻✨. I’m still not certain these artworks do my trip justice but I certainly painted each stroke from my heart!!

All my love, xx MM
Snapshots from my press event with @MarriottIntl P Snapshots from my press event with @MarriottIntl Peru x @BrandmanAgency 🥹💗🇵🇪✨!! My heart was/is so very full after seeing this room filled with incredible content creators and journalists (from The NYTimes to AFAR), who gathered together to celebrate beautiful Peru, and be the first to see the artworks I created from my trip there 🖼️🎨🦙. 

The event was hosted at the extraordinary Peruvian restaurant @ArtesanoNY in Tribeca, which served up quintessential local bites, like lomo saltado and octopus ceviche!! I also loved being able to share the origin story of this partnership with everyone. Truly a DREAM collaboration. I still pinch myself, nearly a decade after quitting my corporate design job, that I get to do this for a living 😭.

All my love, xx MM
Darlings, I’m so excited to finally start sharin Darlings, I’m so excited to finally start sharing all of the original art I created for my partnership with @MarriottIntl Peru this fall 😍🎨🇵🇪. I’m going to post them in the order of my trip bc they tell the visual story of my journey there this past August. The first illustration is an homage to the cuisine in Lima!! There’s simply no better way to capture the essence of this city, which boasts 4 of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2023, than through its food!! 

This first piece features the exquisite chirimoya pavlova from @JWMarriottLima as well as the oh so perfect ceviche I had at @SheratonLima. And for the second illustration, I captured the dreamy terrace view at @HotelParacas, which looks out onto their private dock 🥰✨. These paintings have me itching to go back and experience it all over again. Can’t wait to share the other artworks and snapshots from our press event last week!! More soon, loves xx MM
Darlings, we have arrived at our forth and final s Darlings, we have arrived at our forth and final stop on the @TravelWriteDraw x @HotSoxCo World Tour: ST. MORITZ 🎿💗❄️!!

Get your toesies and holiday stockings prepped for the cooler temps at the link in my bio!!

When I was studying fashion illustration at FIT in When I was studying fashion illustration at FIT in NYC, my instructors used to say that no matter what subject we painted, we could do so through a fashion eye. It birthed a new genre, fashion lifestyle illustration, and it’s precisely what I tapped into in order to render these signature festive cocktails for the @SerenaGWolf x @Dogwood.Hill Tastemaker Collection 🥰. Swipe through to the end for a behind the scenes look into their creation. Now through Tues October 24, you can get 15% off your order of $50 or more in honor of Dogwood Hill’s 8yr Birthday Sale. Use code BIRTHDAYBASH2023 at checkout to redeem 😘.

Darlings, I’m so excited to share the first of t Darlings, I’m so excited to share the first of two new wrapping paper designs with @Dogwood.Hill this year: Toast of the West Coast Plaid 😍🎁🌴💕!! Swipe to see a glimpse into the design process, from original painted stripes, to final plaid!! I STILL cannot get over how talented the Dogwood Hill design team is. Turning my simple signature brushstrokes into such a gorgeous patchwork, blows me away 🥹. And just look at those colours!! You can find this wrapping paper under the @SerenaGWolf Tastemaker Collection on Dogwood-Hill.com now.

Falling into FALL 🥰🦋🍁!! Hello from Canada Falling into FALL 🥰🦋🍁!! Hello from Canada, my loves!! We are just a few days shy from Canadian Thanksgiving, so it feels only right to share my artwork titled ABUNDANCE once more. When I originally painted it, I kept thinking about the expression “what we appreciate, appreciates”. While I’m currently backlogged with emails and commissions, all I can think about is how grateful I am to be surrounded by my family, doing what I love the most 🥹. I can’t wait to share what I’ve been working on behind the scenes with you all. More soon, darlings!!

All my love, xx MM
Darlings!! I’m absolutely, positively, over-the- Darlings!! I’m absolutely, positively, over-the-MOON to invite you to join me in TUSCANY, ITALY 🇮🇹 for an immersive art retreat with @uptrekcom, Oct 12-19, 2024!! 

This week-long, bucket list experience, will take place in a beautiful private villa, with designated workshop spaces, surrounded by sun-soaked hills, elegant cypress trees, and a personal Italian chef!! As your instructor, I’ll be providing daily art demonstrations, alongside my sister as your helpful teaching assistant 👯‍♀️💛!!

We will be creating from our idyllic villa surroundings, from Florence to San Gimignano, through a fashion-art lens. I’ll be teaching you the foundations of using both gouache paints and Tombow markers. We will also be learning the basics of figure drawing live from a model, since this has been one of your top requests!! 

Important Things to Note:

1. There is a RISK-FREE COVID-19 RETURN policy. The trip is fully refundable if you can’t make it due to the virus 💫

2. This retreat is perfect for ALL LEVELS as I’ll be starting from the base level orientation of our materials with simple exercises, progressing from there throughout the week 💫

3. UPDATE: ONLY 10 SPOTS LEFT!! The trip size is limited making it ideal to really connect with myself and your fellow travellers/artists 💫

4. This is the LAST TWD GROUP TRIP AVAILABLE to take with me for the foreseeable future. Do not wait to reserve your seat 💫

5. NO UPFRONT CHARGE until the trip becomes guaranteed, at which point you have 48hrs to either move forward with the booking or not 💫

LINK IN BIO: for all the details and to secure your spot!!

QUESTIONS: email contact@uptrek.com or DM @uptrekcom

One of the most fulfilling moments of my career so far, was getting to host our group trip last year. Creating and connecting with you all in real-time, from the most inspiring destinations on earth, is truly the honour of a lifetime!! I so hope you will join me in 2024 for this magical experience 🥹. Till then I’ll be watching “Under the Tuscan Sun” 🙌🏼🌞🇮🇹

All my love, xx MM
Darlings, today is the day!! The first day of fall Darlings, today is the day!! The first day of fall 🍁, the first day of Libra ♎️, and it’s my BIRTHDAY 🎂!! I sent out something oh so special to those of you subscribed to my newsletter this AM, which I cannot wait for you to discover!! And in keeping with the TWD tradition, I have my annual community TB below 🥹. Where do I even begin?!

This past year has been one of the most transformative of my life. So much change and personal growth ✨. Chopping off my hair was really just the tip of the iceberg 🤣!! And since we are just 3 months shy from the end of 2023, I’ll let you in on a little secret. My word for the year was UPLEVELING and boy did I ever embrace every inch of its meaning!!

That maybe explains why, for the first time in my 30’s, I don’t actually feel sad about getting older this year. Now more than ever I recognize that every day is an opportunity to create the life of my dreams!! I’m determined to keep leaning into my fears and letting all the LIGHT and POSSIBILITY in 💫!! I feel so inspired to be an example of the change I wish to see!!

Very recently, one of our beautiful community members sent me this msg: “I love seeing brave, creative, soul-centred women like you paving the way for the next generations. I always felt like a square peg being jammed into a round hole. I’m happy to see times are changing for the better.” And just like that, I saw a glimpse into my greater purpose!!

This is perhaps one of the more cryptic birthday messages I’ve ever written on here. But I think it’s with good reason. I’m in the midst of BIG change and I cannot wait to see how fully I bloom on the other side 😭🌸. As always, THANK YOU, each and every one of you, for being on this journey with me!! You will never know just how much you light up my life!!

All my love & happy birthday to me 🤭, xx MM
The new @SerenaGWolf x @Dogwood.Hill holiday “Ta The new @SerenaGWolf x @Dogwood.Hill holiday “Tastemaker Collection” art reveal continues, my loves!! I present “Toast of the West Coast” 💗🌴 vs “Toast of the East Coast” ❤️🌲, inspired by Serena’s dreamy California upbringing and classic Christmases in NYC. She mentioned The Beverly Hills Hotel as one of her favourite design references which really helped to kickstart the art and color palette for this suite. I ended up creating these two different sleighs (one with a surfboard 🏄🏼‍♀️ and the other with skis ⛷️) to really play on the two very different holiday hobbies from one coast to the other. And now I have to ask, which coast is your favourite?!

All my love, xx MM
Loves, I’m SO thrilled to share my first glimpse Loves, I’m SO thrilled to share my first glimpse at the holiday stationery “Tastemaker Collection” I created with the beautiful @SerenaGWolf x @Dogwood.Hill this year 🤩🍾🥂🍊🍋!! Inspired by Serena’s playful and witty personality, delicious cocktails and dishes, and bicoastal upbringing, this collection was an absolute JOY to create. When she mentioned “champagne popping” during our inspiration zoom call, I thought “say no more” 😆🙌🏼. Checkout the full suite at the link in my bio now and stay tuned for more of the collection reveal this fall!!

All my love, xx MM
Back with my NYC besties🗽🤎💫 to celebrate Back with my NYC besties🗽🤎💫 to celebrate the @NickFouquet x @Fouquets.NewYork Capsule Collection on the property’s newly opened Le Vaux Rooftop.

The irony of posting this during NYFW is not lost The irony of posting this during NYFW is not lost on me, I promise 😆. Nevertheless, I’m so excited to FINALLY share my interview with @FashionUnitedHQ!! Back in August, I had the most wonderful Zoom interview with the brilliant @Jackie_Mallon1 about my unconventional art career and all the pipe-dream projects it has lead me to outside of the fashion industry. I’m so UNBELIEVABLY grateful to all of my incredible clients throughout the past decade who continue to believe in me and support my dreams 🥹. 99.9% of the jobs you see me post about come directly to me through instagram without an agent/agency. I hope this article inspires and reassures you that all you need is yourself, your talent, and a social media account to build a wildly fulfilling career!! Head to my IG stories now to read the full feature and thank you, Jackie, for the absolute honor!!

All my love, xx MM
Officially BACK in my NY studio and the creative p Officially BACK in my NY studio and the creative process is underway 😍🌸🇵🇪!!

Where would you like to see this new pattern turn up next, loves?! Pajamas, wallpaper, planners, notebooks?! Let me know below!! So much more art to come!! xx MM
Our last day in Peru has arrived, my loves 😭💗⛰️🇵🇪🦙!! And what an UNBELIEVABLE journey it has been. So much so that I ended up pushing back my return flight home, just so I could have this extra day to breathe, paint, reflect, and reset in the stillness of the Sacred Valley at @HotelTamboDelInka. I’m so grateful to Daniel, the hotel’s wonderful General Manager, for allowing me to stay the extra night 🥹🙏🏼. Swipe to see some of the precious moments from our final hrs in Peru and THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to every single one of you involved in making this dream journey a reality. And to our beautiful community, your comments, messages, and most touching words brought this trip to a whole other level for me. I’m eternally grateful for you all!! Here’s to hopefully many more trips to Peru 🥂 and the creative process which begins in my NY studio now!! More to come in late October!!

All my love, xx MM
