Welcome to seeing more of the world's beauty.

Hi! I'm Maggie Sutrov.

I bring my paints wherever I go, and I teach people of all ages to discover their own ways of seeing and expressing the world through art. 

Paint There is a culmination of over 20 years of making art and sharing painting as a way to connect to our beautiful world, whatever your age or experience.  

Creativity is a part of being human. I am here to be your guide and cheerleader as you explore this beautiful world.  

I go and PAINT THERE, and I share the ADVENTURE with you!

About Maggie

Where do you travel?

Join me as I paint among Cambodian temple ruins, Thailand marketplaces, Costa Rican jungles, Canadian glaciers, mountain lakes in Idaho, on trains in Taiwan, and down dirt paths in Sumatra.  I’m always planning the next adventure.

Where do you live the rest of the time?

My home is the island of Maui, which includes so much more than the standard postcard views.  I wander the alpine volcanic wonderlands, deep rainforests, and wild coastlines, exploring the discoveries of each unique location.

For an artist, travel is about seeing a place deeply, not about how many airports you pass through. You can be a traveler in your own neighborhood.

Where do you teach?

I teach both online, and in person here on Maui.  Right now, new subscribers will be invited to a free live Zoom art class!  Click HERE for course offerings.  Whether you are looking for a private class, a group class, or something for your kids, let’s make some art!

Is it alright if I'm not an artist?

You are welcome here just as you are. You don’t have to know how to draw, paint, or anything to come along on this journey. If the beauty and the stories add joy to your life, then Paint There is doing its job.   Paint There is about the sense of connection to place we find when we slow down and take in its details.

Can anyone learn to paint there?

Anyone can learn to draw, and to paint.  The process I teach is about gathering experiences and being in the moment.  It’s about looking closely and being present, not about getting anything right.  

You can use painting as a way to explore this beautiful world, whether it is while sketching in your neighborhood park, or on your next trip overseas.  I offer art classes for all levels, and for adults, children, and families.

Do you teach kids too?

Yes!  Paint There will be launching products for kids, families, and classrooms.  In the meantime, treat your young artist to a private Zoom art class, or book a private group class so that siblings, friends, cousins, and more can make art together, wherever they live!

For more about my work in the schools, click here.  I am also on the Hawaii State Foundation for Culture and the Arts Teaching Artist Roster, continuing my work connecting Hawaii’s students to the arts and creativity.
