Hi Maddie!! My name is Connie Hozvicka and I am an Art teacher, and the artist over at the blog Dirty Footprints Studio. Getting to know you and your art work is one of my favorite parts of your Mom's blog. Thanks for taking the time to do this interview with me!
I call my studio Dirty Footprints Studio--that's where I do all my artwork. Do you have a name for your studio as well?
I call it "I like Art Studio". It's kind of small. It's under a table.
What are your favorite materials to use in making art?
Crayons, paint brushes, paint, and paper. And scissors. Recently I made a flat person - I flattened myself to look like a pancake. I call it Flat Madeline. We were doing an activity at school where we were making flat people and I decided to make one at home. These are the materials I used for my flat person.
Who is your favorite artist and why?
Leonardo DaVinci. Because I like the Mona Lisa.
What is your favorite color?
Pink. And purple. And blue. And bright green.
What advice do you have for people just starting out making art?
Start by doing something easy and then work your way up to harder stuff. Start by going to the store to get some art supplies and then test them out.
What other fun things do you like to do when you are not making art?
Soccer and swimming. I like to play with my stuffed monkey, Joe Banana.
What piece of art work are you most proud of and why?
My painting that I made for my sister called "The Purse". I'm proud of it because it's good.

Thanks for doing this interview with me! Now I can't wait to check out your blog!

How cool. Would love to have a purse like that with bright pink strap/handle. I'm knitting a purse these days for someone for Christmas myself - purse as art might be a trend, ya think?
Thanks for sharing this delightful interview. When's YOURS coming and did you notice my late response/questions on that blog/invite?
Love this. So Inspiring! Great job Maddie.
Hugs, Sandy
