MURMURS WITH MACKENZIE JONES

MURMURS WITH MACKENZIE JONES

WE HAVE INSTAGRAM TO THANK FOR BLOSSOMING A FRIENDSHIP WITH THE TALENTED ARTIST MACKENZIE JONES! I LOVE FOLLOWING MACKENZIE AS SHE DOCUMENTS HER CREATIVE PROCESS, YOU'LL NOTICE A GLOWING MAR MAR CANDLE IN THE BACKGROUND. EVERY BIT OF HER PROCESS IS GEARED TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY JUST AS MUCH AS IT IS STORYTELLING. SHE USES ALL-NATURAL MATERIALS, ETHICAL SOURCING, AND HER UNIQUE TEXTURING TECHNIQUES.  MACKENZIE'S ART SEEKS TO WORK WITH THE EARTH AND NEVER AGAINST IT. SHE SHARES HER IMAGINATION, RECENT PROJECTS, ALONG WITH HER ALL-TIME FAVORITE MAR MAR SCENTS BELOW. - X MAR

Mackenzie Jones
Q: WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON AT THE MOMENT?
A: CURRENTLY LIFE IS FILLED WITH A COUPLE CUSTOM PAINTINGS AND CONCEPTUALIZING FOR A BIG PROJECT THAT WILL BE LATER IN THE YEAR. I’M ALSO WORKING ON EXPANDING MY LIFE OUTSIDE OF PAINTING AND FILLING IT WITH ALL THE JOYS I FIND BEAUTIFUL. CAMPING, POTTERY, READING, PICNICS, AND MAKING MY NEW STUDIO FEEL LIKE HOME.

Q: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MAR MAR SCENT?
A: MY HEART IS COMPLETELY TORN BETWEEN OTHER DESERT CITIES AND LOVERS ONLY. I THINK IF I HAD TO PICK OTHER DESERT CITIES IS MY FAVORITE. EACH ONE EVOKES SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND SO BEAUTIFUL BUT GROUNDED EARTHINESS IN OTHER DESERT CITIES FEELS LIKE HOME.
MACKENZIE JONES, WHAT IS A SCENT THAT EVOKES A MEMORY FOR YOU?
Q: WHAT IS A SCENT THAT EVOKES A MEMORY FOR YOU?
A: CAMPFIRE SMOKE! I GREW UP CAMPING IN THE MOUNTAINS IN COLORADO EVERY SUMMER. WE WOULD SPEND EVERY DAY AROUND A CAMPFIRE LOOKING UP AT THE STARS.  EVERY TIME I SMELL A CAMP FIRE THE MOST PEACEFUL FEELING WASHES OVER ME THROUGH THE DEEPEST PARTS OF MY BEING.
 JAMES TURRELL ART

Q: WHAT INSPIRES YOU? 
A: INTERIOR DESIGN, ITALY, FLORA + FLORAL DESIGN, AND HUMAN CONNECTION REALLY LIGHT UP MY SOUL. I’M INSPIRED BY THESE THINGS AND EXPERIENCES DAILY AND TRY TO FILTER THESE EMOTIONS THROUGH A PAINT BRUSH.
