a creative collaboration

Studio Statement


Our work is a conversation between light and shadow, introspection and action, dreams and the barriers that keep us from them. Together, we create art that invites people on a journey—through their emotions, their mental clutter, and toward a deeper connection with themselves.

Maya’s work is vibrant and uplifting, a celebration of confidence, growth, and the natural world. She paints to inspire joy, curiosity, and the pursuit of our dreams—whether through the innocence of animals, the power of the feminine spirit, or the grounding force of nature.

David’s work embraces contrast, exploring the unseen forces that shape us. He uses visual symbolism and the written word to reflect the tension between doubt and clarity, thought and action, fear and possibility. He creates to surface the truths we avoid, reminding us of the deeper work needed to understand who we are and what we’re here to create.

Together, our work exists in the space between. The moment before a breakthrough. The pull between what holds us back and what moves us forward. We seek to inspire connection—to ourselves, to each other, and to the untapped magic within us all.

Our Creative Ethos

To create more moments that have us linger a little longer through unique murals and creative activations. We want to work with artists, brands, businesses & organizations that are not afraid of expressing their ideals, want to make a big statement and do more to positively impact their communities through art.
