about the artist
Hi, I'm Emma. I am an artist, a mother, a wellbeing enthusiast.
I started studio etart at a time of flux in my life (and perhaps the world!). Things were thrown out of whack from the ups and downs of daily life, a pandemic and new motherhood. All of my interests in art, design and wellness had no outlet and I needed help in gaining balance.
It had been years (12 to be exact) since I graduated from art college (with BA in Fine Art then a postgrad in Photography). I felt disconnected from my creativity, which was in turn affecting how I felt in myself. I realised how linked everything was. Yes, I needed to start a creative practice again but I also needed to look after myself through small daily rituals (with very little time!).
So I started drawing again, making things. I was leaning into my intuition and learning to trust it again (trying not to over think things!). I also learned what works to unblock, to focus on the process and ways to feel more myself.
I hope that here you might find something useful for your journey or maybe some art for your home.
I would love to hear from you - what are you up to? What makes your creative practice hard, easy, fun, not so fun?
