Biography
A former elementary school teacher, Emily started painting mid-pandemic as a way to destress after a long day in the classroom. Since then, she has turned her love for watercolors into a career. Emily finds inspiration from her time living in Guadalajara, Mexico as well as her childhood in Wisconsin. In addition to botanical watercolors, she also enjoys painting pet portraits. As a current resident of Madison, Wisconsin, she teaches watercolor classes and workshops throughout Dane County. Most recently, she is creating watercolor kits so that everyone has access to the magic of watercolors from the comfort of their own home. Emily continues to give back to her community by donating a portion of the proceeds of her “Paint your Pet” nights to local pet rescues as well as donating watercolor kits to local chemotherapy centers.
