So very chuffed and honoured to have been rendered by artist @HurleyBiy and displayed in this incredible group show at @StPetersCork!! Alan has been (and continues to be) an amazing TWD community member and supporter of my work and I’m so proud and inspired to see what he’s achieved ❤️!! As I’ve always said, the sky is truly the limit. Check it out if you are in the area and send me pics since I can’t be there xx MM 🥳🎨🙌🏼✨

Not quite @katiejanehughes level with my makeup skills 😂 BUT ever since I started working with makeup 💄 & skincare 🧖🏼‍♀️ brands for the first time this year, I have loved discovering a new canvas to paint: my face 🎨!! If I told you that I talk to myself every morning as if I’m doing a live makeup demo, would you believe me?! Lol. I’m secretly dying to create an IGTV tutorial of my daily routine...I’m just not sure anyone from my TWD family would care to watch 🤷🏼‍♀️. So let’s call this my toe in the water post, shall we?! Lots of love xx MM

I’m in the process of preparing a lesson plan for an exciting partnership coming up (more on that soon 😝!!) and it has me reflecting on the evolution of my illustration style...the pendulum swings from tightly rendered details to loose and gestural brushstrokes. In a strange way it’s an accurate reflection of my personality: at moments totally composed and the next...a complete burst of fireworks 🤣. Do you see what I see? What style draws you in? xx MM

Walking into my birthday today 🎂 with so much GRATITUDE!! Woke up to so many messages of love and positivity from you guys, from far corners of the world, South Africa, the Netherlands, India, England.. my heart burst 😭💘✨!! If I’ve learned anything about age these past 3 decades it is to throw away any and all preconceived ideas about when anything is meant to happen 🤣🙏🏼. It’s never too late to start and there’s no timeframe for success!! Just LIVE your LIFE with as much integrity, honesty, and truth as you can and never stop trying!! Oh, and when in doubt, look no further than @jlo on top of the world at 50, YAS 🎉!! It’s all about a positive state of mind so keep your thoughts working for you, not against you, and cut out all the negative that isn’t serving your best self. I love you and I can’t believe how lucky I got to have a community filled with so much LIGHT!! Here’s to another glowing year around the sun with all of you 🌎🌕💫🙌🏼✨ xx MM

When your creative process takes over your living room 😝💘👌🏼 Happy Sunday, my lovelies!! I know I’ve been a bit quiet on here. Truthfully I’ve been taking some time to reconcile all the different changes in my life as of late and it’s been hard to be both out (on here) and in (internally) if that makes sense. It’s the eve of my birthday 🥳 and with 10 years under my belt in NYC, it’s hard NOT to reflect on what comes next. I went to breath-work one night this week before returning home to Canada for the weekend and the facilitator said, “your only responsibility right now is to breathe”. And maybe it’s best to start right there, differentiate your feelings, compartmentalize them, and breathe. So today I’m doing just that by the water with my family 🌊. Fun new projects and adventures are just on the horizon but for now...breathe in and breathe out. With love xx MM

@AnokYai in @Schiaparelli for Harper’s Bazaar Icons 🤩🌈💥💘!! Finally had a minute this weekend to get this gorgeous fashion moment down on paper!! Discovered Anok through Vogue’s recent BTS video of her during #NYFW and was so transfixed by her face!! To think she was discovered on a whim at a Howard University party while studying to become a surgeon...really does make me believe in destiny. WOW!! Hope I did her justice xx MM

This September marks my 10 YEAR anniversary living in New York 🤯🍎🗽🙌🏼😭‼️ I think that makes it official: I might just be a New Yorker?! From FIT illustration student living in Spanish Harlem, to launching my business out of a shoe closet in the West Village, to running TravelWriteDraw full-time the past 5 years from my Williamsburg Studio and abroad, it has been one heck of a ride 🎢!! Breaking through this city, its fashion industry, on the heels of our last recession in 2009, as a Canadian citizen with the limited money I saved before moving here, meant I had to fight with every ounce of effort I could muster to make this WORK. 5 visas later, I’m still standing 💪🏼, and the fight never stops. I know how easy it is to get lost in the glamorous disillusion of this app but know this: I am just like you!! I have sweat and cried more times than I can count feeling like I’m not enough, with every opportunity missed, or subtle rejection that I have since learned to view as redirection. But if NYC has taught me anything it is to be resilient. Never STOP trying. This city will not quit and nor should you. New York is brimming with magic around every corner - when preparation meets opportunity. So keep your head high in the hard times and down in the good times and you’ll likely find yourself in places you never dreamed you would. To all my New Yorkers, my friends and family near and far, and to every individual who gave me the chance to pursue my dream here, I love you. And to my beloved NYC, thank you for holding me, for challenging me beyond measure, for the most rewarding adventure of my life to date. There aren’t enough words to express my gratitude for you 🗽...I cannot wait to see what the next decade has in store for us ❤️. With love always, xx MM

So incredibly excited to see what’s in store this season!! To think this is my 20th season in NYC is absolutely mental 🤯!! I’m also looking forward to catching up with you all here and reflecting on the where and how things are shifting and shaping in the world of TWD. Wishing you all a gorgeous day and excited to share some of my events with you over the next few days xx MM
