"Not all who loiter are lost" S. Monk Kidd
Maria Elizabeth is a big dreamer and artist, of many forms, from the West Coast of Scotland. Maria’s work is inspired by nature, interiors, an array of European architecture and music (the latter deriving from her classical vocal degree). Whether it be couples, brands, vendors or students Maria approaches all of her collaborative work with kindness and guidance to ensure that both parties always feel safe and secure during her immersive and experience-led design process.
Maria’s perfect day would include: climbing a Scottish hill with a small group of family/friends. Then afterwards spending time in a cosy quaint pub, by the beach, listening to Scottish folk music. A true free spirit!
INFJ. Perfectionist. Traveller. Learner.
Maria's Mission Statement
Our stories shape us in valuable ways that should be cherished with delicacy and heart. Here at Maria Elizabeth it is our mission to take life’s treasured moments and turn them into unique story-driven visuals that make a sincere emotional impact on those most important to you. From your story, we shall create beautiful empathic memories, through stationery and tablescapes, that will continue to echo for generations to come.
“In the flush of love's light, we dare be brave. And suddenly we see that love costs all we are, and will ever be. Yet it is only love which sets us free.” Maya Angelou
My relationship with art is one of love. The kind that is pure, passionate, vulnerable and wholehearted. My first love within the arts was with music. Growing up, I was blessed with a huge family from all walks of life thus being rich in stories. In awe of their tellings I would go home and transform their words into song as best I could, not knowing that years later it would take me to graduating from university with an honours in classical voice and composition.
After graduating, and many interesting sales and visual jobs in between, I decided to work as a Marketing and Events Coordinator for a Non-Profit. This job brought me some of the most incredible career achievements to date, such as meeting the Queen, but also some of the hardest personal experiences to date. And so, after months of feeling lost and years of feeling like I was born for solo artistic output, I decided to let fate take the wheel as I believed it was all happening for a reason. Then… the pandemic hit, I was made redundant and Maria Elizabeth Stationer, Stylist and Storyteller was born.
To paraphrase Maya Angelou - to love is to be brave. Since starting Maria Elizabeth, for me my love for creating your stationery, styling your tables and telling your love stories inspires me to be brave everyday. Maria Elizabeth Stationer, Stylist and Storyteller, quite simply, is the love that has set me free.
I am incredibly grateful that you are here and ready to embark on this journey together. With my love for art and your love for one another we shall create meaningful, detailed and elegant fine art stationery and styling that tells your story in the most authentic yet timeless way.
Ready? Let’s begin.
All my love,
Maria xo
