ABOUT

Hi! I’m Madie Bryson, an illustrator / maker from Birmingham, Alabama.

I have always loved creating characters and colorful worlds from my imagination. My greatest inspirations are my husband Matt, my son Bo, and Jesus. I have worked for a multitude of clients and businesses over the last 13 years, eventually winning a regional Emmy award through Tytan Creates for my illustration work on the animation short “The Legend of Dogo Onsen”. I took extended maternity leave following the birth of my son, so I was incredibly excited to get back to making art over the last couple of years. Since becoming a mother, my career has taken a huge transformation from client work to selling my personal creations. I am now not only illustrating, but I create polymer clay products such as pins or earrings, as well as hand printed bags and other wearable things. Being able to merge all of my creative interests with illustrating by creating and selling products has been extremely special as I see people wearing/using my art to express themselves. I can’t put into words what a dream come true it has been to be a mom and also an artist, and to see so many other people relating to the things I create!
