About Maggie
|
My name is Maggie Mylow and I am a self taught artist from Red Deer, Alberta, Canada. I started painting in Acrylics in 2014 and developed a quick learning of the fundamentals. I was able to translate what I had learned and teach others how to use the same techniques. I have been teaching art classes since 2015 and love the joy and experience of painting.
Paint With Maggie was an idea that I came up with this year (2022). I had taught virtually and loved seeing the experiences I was able to give to people all over the world. I wanted to give this experience to people in the way Bob Ross did. His Joy of Painting series is something that friends and I would get together and Paint, Pause, and Play Along. I would love to give the same experience as Bob Ross did but with my own twist of course. Paint with Maggie are free Virtual Lessons provided to you. Perfect for the beginner, the group of friends that want to have a fun night together, a virtual paint lesson for your creative child, or just because you want to escape from the world for a while. This is my give back to a community that has given me so much. Come and Paint with Maggie so you can Paint, Pause, and Play Along. |
