MAEWYN PADILLA

Born and raised in Albuquerque New Mexico
Mother and creator
Chalk artist and mixed media painter
Creations unusually found
Random and unexpected
So many things left around
Sometimes lost but never rejected

Inspired by the video games and cartoons of her childhood, Padilla’s creations look like something out of Roger Rabbit, with life size cartoons popping out of the sidewalk and greeting you with a quote that might brighten your day or make you think.  “I really love the idea of creating beauty and happiness in this world that can’t be bought, it’s not a commodity, it’s just out there for people to enjoy and nothing else.” -Albuquerque Journal
