Artist of the Month
Each month during the school year at Madison Station Elementary, different artists will be showcased. The goal is to provide students with a variety of artwork to enjoy during the year and to help the PTO support our children's art program. Featured artists donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of their art to the Madison Station art program.
If you are interested in any of the art featured below and on our MSE PTO Facebook page,
please contact the front office for assistance 601-856-6246.
If you are interested in a painting that has already been sold, feel free to contact Kelly Stringer (kelly@maxeywann.com) to ask if the artist can create additional or similar pieces.
Artist of the Month:
Julie Hardy
Hi! I’m Julie Hardy, and I’m so excited to share my artwork with the Madison Station community this month!
Originally from Vermont, I’ve had the opportunity to live in several states before my family and I made Mississippi home. My husband, Jeff, and I have three wonderful sons: Elliott, a freshman at Ole Miss; Lincoln, a sophomore at Madison Central; and Duncan, who is starting Madison Middle School this year.
A few years ago, I discovered a passion for painting, beginning with seasonal décor and painted furniture. That hobby quickly grew into my business, Mantel Decor and More, and eventually expanded into teaching paint classes, creating custom window art, holiday yard displays, and banners. Today, you can find my painted furniture at 3 Houses Studios in Gluckstadt, and I regularly participate in local craft fairs. Most recently, I’ve enjoyed exploring a new artistic style while studying with Chattanooga artist Ali Kay.
I hope you enjoy the colorful collection on display in the halls this month. Thank you for letting me share my love of art with you!
