Maggie Parr (Location - California)

Parr has been drawing and painting from the moment she could hold a pen. After graduating with honors in 1989, Parr was hired as
the youngest show designer at Walt Disney Imagineering. During her tenure there, she designed attractions for Toontown and Animal
Kingdom, among others. In 1994, she left Imagineering to open an independent art and design business developing murals, portraits,
illustrations, and architectural and industrial design. She has also been a featured artist with the Disney Gallery since 2005, and has
developed an international following for her classical style oil portraits of the characters.

Parr works from her Los Angeles studio, traveling occasionally to paint murals in place or consult in design meetings. Her art has been
published in several books and exhibition catalogs. Several of her paintings are currently displayed at the Mayor’s Gallery in City Hall in
Los Angeles, California.
