Madison Martell
An independent artist’s gallery, kept with a designer’s eye for the margin.
Welcome
I work between the printed page and the painted surface — identities, editorial pieces, posters, and drawings that begin in a sketchbook and end somewhere less predictable.
This site is both an archive and a portfolio: process work for the studios I want to work with, and the quieter pieces that keep the practice honest. Everything here is drawn, designed or painted by hand, and updated as new work leaves the studio.

About the artist
A graphic design student with a painter’s habit of keeping everything.
I'm a graphic design student and artist working between print and paint. My practice begins with drawing — a mark, a margin, a mistake worth keeping — and that sketchbook logic carries into the design work: typography with a little friction, identities built from the hand rather than the template.
Currently open to studio roles, internships, freelance identities and commissions.
