PORTFOLIO

Hi! I’m Maddie McClintock

I’m an artist, designer, and entrepreneur, who graduated from the University of Arkansas in 2021 with a Bachelor of Arts Studio Design degree, an emphasis in Photography and Printmaking, and background in architectural design.

I founded and own a freelance business, MADDHOUSE Style LLC, that specializes in mural work and bright, bold art. I also currently work at Dillard’s Corporate Headquarters as a Menswear CAD Textile Designer.

MADDHOUSE Style LLC logo

As a creative business owner, I’ve curated & designed every element of the brand- including this website and our logo. The MADDHOUSE logo was hand drawn then chromed out in Photoshop. Process video below.

Murals

Murals are MADDHOUSE’s specialty and main freelance focus. I use interior/exterior acrylic Benjamin Moore paints.

MURAL PROCESS

Let me walk you through my ‘Ode to Arkansas’ project for Ledger Bentonville, a community co-working space, and the world’s first bikeable office building.

I was asked to create an Arkansas themed mural for them. I worked with the curator for theme and the interior design team for color palette.

Initial Idea Board

I start off all my projects with brainstorming, research, and a moodboard. This is the place to get all the thoughts and ideas gathered to decide the direction I want to take the project. I let it be messy- I can always clean it up later.

Official Moodboard

hand watercolored, digitally scanned in & edited. After consolidating my thoughts, deciding on themes, and finalizing the color palette, comes the ‘official moodboard’. This is the moodboard delivered to the client.

Mockups

I always mockup my murals in Procreate- an illustration program for iPads. I usually mock them up flat then render them onto the wall. This example is a first sketch and final mockup. Usually there’s a couple renderings/edits between the first and last.

TEXTILE DESIGN

I started making repeating (wallpaper) patterns for MADDHOUSE because I was excited about the versatility repeating patterns have with bringing art into functional spaces. This interest and work landed me a job at Dillard’s Headquarters as a CAD Textile Designer for their Menswear team.

Designs can range anywhere from repeating pattern work, placed panel designs, embroidery detailing, or lapel pins.

STICKERS

Stickers are the cheapest, most fun way to get your art out into the world, in my opinion. I love sticking a sticker in every city I visit, so a little piece of me stays there.

GIF’s

I love bringing things to life- whether ideas to physical or illustrations to animations. These GIF’s are created through frame by frame illustrations.

GIF GALLERY

’For My Next Trick, I Disappear!’ Painting & GIF
GIF’s can be used to create ‘augmented reality’. This painting is a 24” x 48” augmented painting- meaning if you scan it with the ARTIVIVE app on your phone, it activates and overlays the GIF, creating an augmented reality piece.
