This morning I did an interview with Rachel Wilkins Blum for her Coffee with Artists series. We had a nice talk that got into a little bit of everything. Click the link below to watch it on youtube.

Also, I just want to mention, for the sake of documentation, we are heading into week 6 of lock down. Call it what you will - shelter in place, safer at home, a pain in the ass, scary scary, or a great time to work in the studio. I could go on about this, but why would I? We are all hearing more than we want to about Covid-19. Needless to say, take care of yourself and find loving ways to spend time and de-stress.

Check out my talk with Rachel.

Now I'd like to announce - finally! - my new art website. Call this the soft opening because I'm going to tell you more in the next few weeks as we roll this one out to the world. Without further ado - www.maureenmakiart.com.

For those who don't know, it was maureenmaki.com and now it is maureenmakiart.com. Don't worry, they both still exist. The new site is more sophisticated and works in conjunction with my other site. I hope you like it and let me know if you do.

My new website - www.MaureenMakiArt.com

Our life has been transferred to video. We are all online personalities now - Zooms, chats, meetings, interviews and of course watching TV.

Or even better, if you need some good music in your life, listen to Sam Lapides live on Facebook. Sam is a wonderful songwriter with an amazing voice and a true professional musician as you'll see when he easily does a live show online without a hitch. Did I mention he is also my husband? Please take a listen.

Sam Lapides Live!

I have been painting a lot! I love it and it is by far the best thing to come out of Covid-19 for me. I have this rose theme going on right now. Spiral growth and natural the progression of change and becoming. Please stay tuned as I will be showing off more of these paintings in the coming weeks!

Learn about my inspiration, struggles and fun.
