I am Maia Anderson, and I have been painting as long as I can remember.  It has always been my place of comfort – my retreat from all of the noise life has to offer.  Whenever I was challenged or just when I felt the inspiration, I began to paint, sketch and carve wood as an outlet.  I enjoy utilizing various materials in the creative process.  Paper.  It never had a chance with me!  I love sketching and seeking new ways of being creative.  My favorite medium is watercolor and pencils.
