About

photo by Gracie Byrd Jones Photography

I'm Madison Popkess, an artist based in Austin, Texas. Focusing on watercolor landscapes and architectural drawings, my art is an attempt to both elevate and anchor spaces by acting as a reminder of what is true and beautiful. 

My Grandma, who was an artist herself, taught me how to paint with watercolors at her kitchen table when I was a little girl and the love of painting just stuck for me!

That remained true throughout college when I was studying entrepreneurship and simultaneously working for other female entrepreneurs and artists. 

I'm so thankful for the ability to use all that I've learned to pursue this dream of mine, while living with my husband, Wes, here in the heart of Texas. 

Here, you can find my current collections of original paintings and drawings available, browse through my gallery of past work, and even join local watercolor workshops with me. Thank you for being here.
