Emily’s recent work references urban gardens and public parks. She takes photographs and makes sketches of these places and paints them in her studio, creating a visual language to represent these organic forms.
Emily appreciates gardens as creative expressions of their makers, as community spaces, and also enjoys how they can take on an unwieldy life of their own.
Emily was born and raised in San Francisco and has a BA in Fine Art from UCLA. She currently lives in San Francisco with her husband and two kids.
