Maddy Conover is an artist living in Philadelphia, PA. As an elementary schooler, she began learning how to “mind map,” both digitally and by hand. Ever since then, mind mapping has been essential to her creative practice. She enjoys helping others see the interconnections between their own thoughts and ideas which led her to graphic recording.
She received her MFA in Printmaking from the Tyler School of Art & Architecture at Temple University and her BA in Studio Art and Sustainable Food & Farming from the University of Massachusetts – Amherst. In her free time, she enjoys screenprinting, painting, cooking, and hanging out with her dog, Miwa.https://madeleineconover.com/ Contact: conovermadeleine@gmail.com
