Hi, I'm Emma
A freelance illustrator and collage artist who makes captivating pictures entirely from paper!
My work is bold and playful celebrating the joy of childhood and simple moments of life.
Why do I love
collage?
It allows me to use my hands in a process that is intuitive and playful.
I love it's flat graphic quality. I aim for simplicity, less is always more.
Scissors allow me to cut interesting forms I could never draw.
The variety of colours and textures found in handpainted and found papers is endless!
What's my
background?
I completed a Bachelor of Design with a focus on graphic and textile design. Immediately after graduating I started working for a textile company designing beach towels. It was there that I discovered I loved creating designs for kids. This passion has continued until today.
I am inspired by childrens art, Eric Carle, outsider art, and Paul Klee, to name a few.
What can I create
for you?
My work has a unique and bold style that’s ideal for children’s products such as stationary, greetings cards, clothing or textiles.
I create endearing characters suitable for board books and younger readers.
My graphic style would also look great in magazines or on packaging and marketing content.
