Hi, I’m Emily!


I’m a multi-skilled Artist and Craftsperson. I live in the rural town of Taunton, surrounded by the flood plains and hills of the cider county - Somerset. I grew up here, but while studying I’ve lived in Cornwall and Plymouth - I love the sea and a good bit of fish and chips!
I have also spent time living in India where I was lucky enough to travel to a number of destinations, exploring the sites as a tourist, celebrating religious festivals and even attending a wedding with locals who became friends.
I like to draw upon life experiences, surroundings and emotions for inspiration. I am heavily influenced by the feminine form, fantasy, spirituality, nature and feminism. Also dear to my heart are puns - I love to illustrate whimsical characters to go alongside them.
I am continually developing my skills through evening classes, workshops and independent study from my studio at home. Illustrating is my main focus, however, I have a range of skills which is often expanding due to my keen curiosity for the arts and crafts industry - Please see my skills page (coming soon!) for a comprehensive list.
Art is my passion and I will happily spend all of my time being creative. I also enjoy cooking, watching films, yoga, walking and dogs as well as spending time with those nearest and dearest to me.
Please take a look around my website, feel free to drop me a message if you are interested in working with me, or, why not join my mailing list to stay up to date with the latest news!
Thanks for taking the time to get to know me
Emily
