Maya Murano is an award-winning, professional watercolor artist who lives in Wilmington, North Carolina. She originally grew up in Oberlin, Ohio, but moved to Wilmington, NC in 2011. Growing up, Maya spent a great deal of time outside, either playing in creeks, mud, building fairy houses or picking fresh ingredients from the gardens. All these things combined definitely have informed her body of work through the years. By working in watercolors, and many other non-toxic and environmentally friendly art mediums, Maya strives to have her art be as earth friendly when possible. Many of her paintings and custom gift items focus on produce, organic shapes and nature’s bounty. You can find her work in galleries, restaurants and private collections throughout the southeast.
