Hi, I’m Maddie!
I am a 25-year-old artist living in Calgary, Alberta. I have loved art ever since I was a kid. I took any art class that was offered from elementary up until high school, which is when I knew I wanted to pursue art as a career. I attended the University of Calgary and graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts, Visual Studies degree. Maddie Customs was created after I painted a pair of Air Force 1s for a friend back in April of 2020, and since then, I have painted over 500 pairs of shoes.
As a passionate sneaker enthusiast with a deep love for art, I truly love painting and designing shoes. To me, sneakers are more than just footwear; they are a canvas for self-expression. Unlike traditional art, which is confined to gallery walls, custom sneakers travel with their owners, becoming an accessible part of their daily lives. Each pair is a unique, one-of-a-kind creation tailored specifically to my client's interests. My portfolio showcases a diverse range of designs, from popular anime and floral patterns to team logos and iconic album covers.
I am always eager to take on a new project. You can place your order through Instagram Direct Message, email, or through the submission form in the Contact & Order page on my website.
I can’t wait to connect with you!
