NAT MAKS is Natascha Maksimovic,

a QEST Scholar and marbling artist based at Resort Studios, Margate. Known for her masterful use of colour, Natascha has built a reputation for immersive colourways that define her unique marbling style - striking in presence yet deeply harmonious. Natascha's work is inspired by the Japanese art form of ‘Suminagashi’ marbling. Blurring the boundaries between craft and art, she pushes the technique into new territory, creating bold, expansive works that fuse heritage with modernity.

Once part of a team with Sir Ridley Scott, Natascha transitioned from the film industry to develop her own practice, bringing a love of imagery, craftsmanship, and storytelling into her work.

Her distinctive marbling style has led to award-winning designs, including Best Wallpaper at the Homes & Gardens Awards 2024, and was awarded the prestigious QEST scholarship grant to develop sustainable botanical inks.

Recent collaborations include Molton Brown, Maison Cacao, Knots Rugs, and Decorex, while her Art series Memory Landscapes has been exhibited at Dory’s Restaurant, Margate since 2024 and Ruup & Form, London (Feb 2025). Natascha will showcase a new collaboration with Sebastian Cox for London Craft Week 2025.

Her work has been featured in ELLE Decoration, House & Garden, LivingEtc, Wallpaper, The Guardian, and Financial Times.
