Perhaps best known for her role as Fashion Doll Artist Promoter, McGuire has never stopped promoting herself. Designer Dolls Magazine was the one and only magazine that was serious about promoting the fashion doll makeover artist. That was because McGuire was passionate about it, and about them.
McGuire has been “in the arts” since childhood. Her parents were both artists, her mother a fashion designer and watercolor artist, her father a commercial Art Director, and, in fact, they met at the Art Students League in New York City.
Growing up, McGuire had received numerous art awards at school, won poetry, prose and slogan contests, as well. An actress at 12 years old, she went on to playwriting, which developed into screenwriting, which took her to film acting courses. She landed a small role in a movie with Jon Voigt and Armand Asanti, did a TV comedy script for Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds, and eventually had her own plays produced Off-Broadway in Manhattan, New York.
She never stops writing, but had over the years moved on to black & white photography, some nude drawings, acrylics, and has recently found herself engaged in 3-D mixed media art so far using acrylic paints, beads, and other found objects. Suddenly, she has found a love for what she labeled "Imaginary Celestial Events," which were prominently displayed in shows and galleries this past summer. The celestial events come to her in dreams, and the imagination took her out to other galaxies, creating exciting events on canvas and canvas paper.
Now she has begun an exciting new publication - again, to promote artists! It's called "ART SPACE," and McGuire's passion to give the artist, specifically the painter, a vehicle to finally affordably display his or her talents is once again in full bloom!
