Maggie Weakley

Maggie Weakley’s love for the ocean began at a very young age. Her family’s favorite vacation was going to the beach and her love for the ocean deepened on those trips. Living in Florida has made accessing the beach easy and you can often see Maggie walking the shores collecting treasures and drawing inspiration from the ocean which she uses in all her work.

Maggie graduated from the Columbus College of Art and Design with a Bachelor’s Degree in Illustration. Her career began as an Art Director for Shoebox Greetings, Hallmark Cards, inc., in Kansas City Missouri. She worked at Shoebox for 3 years directing one of Hallmark's most profitable and innovative product lines. Maggie married her best friend from college, Kent, who owns and operates Blue Sky Graphic Communications, an advertising firm. They have both worked together on many projects throughout the years. In 2015, Maggie started MaggiesAngels.com, and a collection of Pet Portraits was born. She has created commissions for people around the country and the world. With more than 500 pet portraits in her collection, and more than 15 years of creating paintings with animals, Maggie decided to play around with a different subject matter and the “beach collection” was born. She absolutely loves working with Fluid Acrylics and Resin and her collections range from paintings to houseware products and to a jewelry line. She loves to experiment with different art materials, surfaces, and techniques, therefore, her collections are constantly growing.

Maggie loves giving back to her community and is often participating in charitable events, local art shows, teaching, and donating to her favorite non-profit organizations.

Maggie lives in the beautiful horse capital of the world Ocala, Florida with her husband Kent, her two super cute Chihuahuas- Coco & Mio, and a group of red & white Goldfish. She has two adult sons Lucas, a Design Engineer working at Scaled.com, and Max a Biologist and Photographer. She is a very proud mom!
