Meet Your Teacher

Hi, I'm Emily! Art has always been my happy place. Growing up, I was the kid who was always drawing, painting, and dreaming of being an artist. Life had other plans for a while—a 10-year career as a hairdresser, navigating depression, marrying my high school sweetheart, and raising three boys in three years. Through it all, creating became my therapy, helping me heal and process everything life threw at me.

At 36, I’m finally living my childhood dream! I specialize in mixed media and abstract minimalism, and I love exploring beauty through curiosity and creativity. Teaching allows me to share my passion and show others how to find joy in creating their own art.

I can’t wait to meet you, hear your story, and help you discover your creative spark. Together, we’ll make something amazing!
