about me!

Hi, I'm Emma! I'm a surface designer & illustrator from Maryland. I received my BFA in Illustration from the Savannah College of Art and Design. I love to design repeat patterns and draw all kinds of animals.  I primarily work digitally but also love to work with watercolor and gouache. My favorite things to draw are tigers, stars, and animals wearing little shoes. My goal is to make art that brings people joy.

​

Aside from illustration, I love reading fantasy novels, writing, baking, and spending time outside.
