After graduating at an early age from the school of Hard Knocks. Madelon had
a successful career in the world of retail visual merchandising, window design
and faux finishing.
A self taught painter she has focused her creative energy with colorful acrylic
paint and canvas. Sometimes mixed with a little whimsy and stirred with a bit of humor,
her goal is to bring a smile to the eye of the viewer.
She is inspired by places she has lived, from big cities of the Midwest to quaint
towns of Maine . Most important to her are the fun, colorful and humorous people
(and animals!) she has met along the way.
Working in the creative side of fashion and home furnishings she has had the
privilege of being surrounded by the most talented quirky people with a quick
wit and open minds. She considers herself lucky to do what she loves and has
been encircled by the people that have brought much laughter to her life.
Madelon and her husband Jimmy can be found living in Southwest Florida enjoying
a sandy beach wondering where this unpredictable life's journey will take them
next.
Madelon's work are part of many private collections throughout the United States
.
