I am outgoing and well spoken, with a natural aptitude and passion for the arts. Through working in various fields, and my time at university, I have further developed my creative knowledge and abilities. I am innovative and quick thinking, and currently working on a freelance commission basis, selling my own illustrations and developing my social media platform:
Art website: mfmpillustration.wordpress.com
Art Instagram: instagram.com/mfmp.art,
Personal Instagram: instagram.com/maddiphippx
Blog: madelinefmphipps.wixsite.com/mysite
I also use my free time and current studies as a way of improving both my creative and informative writing. I am looking to branch into the creative industry with an open mind and enthusiasm to learn, and to become involved in interesting, original projects and teams.
