My Name is Emily.. I'm 33.. I work night shift at a rehab hospital.. and I'm broke.. welcome to life as I know it..
I have only recently found the "art gene". My family is full to bursting with amazing talent.. We boast art professors, high school art teachers, wood carvers, painters etc... I have never been known as the family artist.. Black sheep, out spoken, smarty pants, middle child, pain in the ass? YES.. Artist? Me? Never..
Here is a short list of things I love:
My family: Sean (my love) Kyleigh (Mini-Me) Anna (my princess)
My dog (Guinness)
My Sugar Glider (Marshmallow)
Art Journaling
Smash Books
Reading (swoon)
I live in a small apartment in a small neighborhood.. I create in a corner of our living room.. my desk is an outdoor bistro table my sister gave me (haha) I truly am a broke artist ;)
As far as art goes I like a little bit of everything.. My favorite thing to work with is paper.. I've loved all things paper since I was a kid.. No one loved school supply shopping more than this girl.. Notebooks? Folders? Book Covers to make? Wahoo!! Smash journals are my secret passion.. Whether I make my own or use a Smash Book... My next venture will be art journals.. I bought a
Dylusions Creative Journal to use... I read nothing but great things about them, and I can use all the help I can get :)
So there is a little about me.. I'll be adding pics of my newest creations.. perhaps a tutorial or 3.. And probably more than a few rants here and there..
Until next time....
