Madden May is an 18-year -old, Arizona-born artist (B. 2006). She is a recent high school graduate and is college-bound for The School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she will pursue a bachelors degree in Fine Arts. She works in a wide-variety of mediums, but her style is made distinct by her vibrant use of mixed color and stylized approach to rendering portraits, animals, and environments. She also aims to incorporate recycled/non-traditional materials like cardboard, carpet, and fabric.

"My goal is to create art that evokes a sense of wonder, joy, and curiosity through drawing connections in the outside world, especially in understanding people's personal experiences, while using a multitude of artistic mediums."
