Controlled Chaos Paige Madeheim Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my illustrations. Please feel free to reach out at any point. Kind regards Paige Madeheim @m.vs_design paigemadeheim05@gmail.com
Hello and welcome to your formal and slightly chaotic introduction to me! While I know that professionalism is important, I thought I’d shift this application to the real person behind the screen. The person that is still figuring out life and finds the beauty in plants, bones, and little critters that many are repulsed by. This zine will take you through all of my favourite illustrations while I tell you about the person that wakes up and cracks a monster open before hitting the road with some Nickleback and a whole lot of black lipstick before getting distracted by a squirrel crossing the road. So buckle up, grab a cup of coffee, and enjoy. My illustrative weapon of choice.1 2

I have a pet snake named Mr Picklesworth. He is quite literally my entire life. As a kid I used to pick and play with moonflowers. Little did i know... they’re toxic. I turned out alright though. Miscellaneous Digital 9 10
