Colleen Maynard is a visual artist, writer, and arts administrator.

She also makes highly detailed, large-scale drawings of marine invertebrates, prehistoric fossils, and overlooked life forms using analogue drafting tools and collage. Maynard holds double majors from the Kansas City Art Institute. She is a proud founding member and alumna of Throughline, an artist-run space and collective group of artists in Houston, Texas. Maynard is an administrator at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
