ABOUT EMILY

Originally from Charlotte, North Carolina, Emily now lives with her family in the Minneapolis area of Minnesota. In addition to being an artist, she has held the roles of social worker and therapist, each of which continually inform her way of being in the world.

For Emily, sharing her art is a public act that represents the deepest desire within each one of us to be fully loved AND fully known. It’s the physical acting out of her drive for authenticity, relationships, and meaning-making.

At first glance, the art is colorful, but the neutrals and dark parts play an integral role. We can’t appreciate the bright parts of life without recognizing the mundane, painful, or necessary pieces. It’s all a part of the bigger story — the beautiful, messy, humbling adventure of living out our day-to-days, side by side, with one another. Come along, and bring your questions. We’ve got some too. Maybe we can answer them, together.

Art is life.

Life is art.

All is grace.

Home is where the art is. And by art, I mean the color of everyday life, things we made with our hands, the intangible moments between family members, the sights and sounds of future nostalgia. Thankful to have those captured in our home by @theknzph
