Illustrating how the arts and film break down complex environmental issues, making them more easily understood by a broader audience. Speaking to local and global leaders at in-person and online events across the globe, including the UN Sustainable Destinations Summit held in 2022 in Mallorca. Furthermore, his work has been featured in countless film festivals and media outlets..

    Under Max’s guidance, Trailbound Sketches has since grown into a production studio and engaging community. Where his team produces impactful nonfiction films, dynamic watercolor tutorials with environmental education woven into each lesson and beautiful products featuring his colorful artwork.

    He is a father, husband and endurance athlete who has visually shown the world that anything is possible if you are willing to make that first scary mark. Max is also dyslexic and reminds people every day it’s ok if you don’t see the world like everyone else, there is room for you! There are no typos or misspellings in art!
