Manage episode 471006514 series 3638350
Today, we’re diving headfirst into the world of art, passion, and creative brilliance with the one and only Maria Wickwire, a phenomenal sculpture artist who’s redefining what it means to make art come alive.
Maria’s work isn’t just something you see—it’s something you feel. Her sculptures tell stories, spark emotions, and remind us that art isn’t just about decoration—it’s about connection. From the way she molds her materials to the heart and soul she pours into every piece, Marie is the kind of artist who leaves an unforgettable mark, both on her creations and everyone lucky enough to experience them.
If you didn’t know already, Maria’s beautiful sculpture Anillos is front and center at the Price Sculpture Forest in Coupeville. I love it so much and used it in my Instagram post with my trailer for this podcast. She was told about it and that is how she and I connected. One of my favorite galleries is Museo in Langley. Her pieces are there as well. So, you know … I just had to interview her.
Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on Maria’s journey—how she found her calling, the inspiration behind her incredible sculptures, and what it’s like to create art that is placed in a natural wonderland that is Whidbey Island. Whether you’re an artist yourself or someone who just appreciates beauty, Maria’s story is a testament to following your passion and creating something extraordinary.
So, settle in, and prepare to be blown away. By the end of this episode, you’ll see why Maria Wickwire is a true treasure to Whidbey Island. Let’s share some magic, shall we?
