Maki Schwartz

I am a self-taught artist originally from Japan. I am interested in creating my artwork intuitively and freely through the interaction of colors, shapes, lines, and textures blending with my emotion. I truly enjoy using different materials ranging from acrylic, oils, chalks, inks, markers, oil pastels, clay, and handmade papers…..any medium allows me the freedom to express myself, and create intuitively without fear or hesitation on canvas and paper. I love and deeply care about what I am creating and I always find my inner flow while the process of creation and it brings me pure bliss.
My goal is for viewers to find their own bliss through my artwork.
