Madeleine McKinlay

Madeleine McKinlay is the creative force behind our bold and distinctive artworks, infusing each piece with her heart and soul through vibrant strokes and meticulous details.

With a natural flair for creativity and an eye for color, Madeleine earned her Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design from the Queensland College of Art at Griffith University. After graduating, she began her career as a graphic designer before transitioning into the paper industry, collaborating with designers and advertising agencies. She later ventured into the banking sector, gaining experience in marketing, product management, IT, and executive roles.

Throughout her professional journey, painting remained her cherished creative outlet, where she embraced bold colors as her muse. Madeleine's work encompasses a range of subjects, from detailed realistic studies of people and places to loose, imaginative interpretations, all characterized by bright, striking hues.

Recently, her focus has shifted to vibrant interpretations of the Australian landscape, inspired by family adventures throughout Queensland and beyond. This passion for exploration and the natural world reflects her love for new experiences and a commitment to staying active in the beauty of nature.
