Meet Julie Maida: The Heart Behind Creative Garden Studio

Hi there! I'm Julie, the founder and artist behind Creative Garden Studio. I'm a wife, mom of two wild boys (I need so much coffee), artist, designer, educator, pet rescuer, and (of course) nature enthusiast.

I feel most alive when I am making art or playing outside. I’m constantly inspired by the beauty and complexity of God’s creation in the natural world.

My goal is to create work that brings contentment, delight, and serenity to your space. Every piece is handmade (by me) with care and intention.

I also create bespoke art pieces for homes and interior designers - art that fits perfectly into your space. I work with art collectors, fine art consultants, interior designers, major retailers, and home builders to craft original art and prints for elegant interior spaces. Simply reach out if you'd like to work with me!

The "Why" Behind My Work

The Creative Garden Studio, as a name, has many layers of meaning for me.

First, my mind feels like a creative garden and functions like a creative garden. I never stop being inspired, and new ideas grow like a garden in my mind.

It also has a subtle biblical implication—we were created in a garden. A garden is where fruit grows, and I hope I am producing a harvest worthy of the work God has given to me. I am in awe at the complexity of the creative world and think nature alone is proof of God's existence.Thus, the "Creative Garden Studio" was born.

A few carefully chosen art pieces can transform your space and your mood, especially when they remind you of your favorite places or experiences. I create art that captures nature's beauty and share it with the world.

Connection and service are also at the heart of my business. I take pride in making sure you feel valued and will continue to offer art and products that exceed your expectations, along with genuine customer support from a real person.
