your art gives me so much joy!

[@aimeeupton751]

I take long breaks before I go back and watch through some of my favourite artist videos, and recently I've taken such a long break because I've fallen out of love with life and therefore out of love with creating. I've paused this video in the google slide aye-aye portion because I can feel myself getting emotional, your creativity, boundary pushing and excitement for art makes me desperately miss who I was and makes me want to find it again. Hold on to the joy you feel for creating, you are absolutely amazing and I really really hope your second year is going as great as the first.

Life loves you remember…

Your art is just amazing and honestly super inspirational. I love being able to watch your progress :D

[@Ms_Fate]

Ok but did anyone else feel that they need to pick up their sketchbook ASAP and fill them up ? Anyway this video has officially inspired me to do these collages and also fill my sketchbook up !! Thanks for that and also i loved how each of ur sketchbook page was filled up with life yea that's what I am going to say. And to be honest I could go on and on and on... Thanks for sharing ur work with us !! ❤❤❤❤

I feel kind of bittersweet watching this cause I didn't get to follow my dream of going to art school instead I studied computer software eng at uni and now have a full time job with that degree and tho the income isn't bad my love definitely resides elsewhere. Your art is very inspirational and beautiful, I wish you luck and success in the rest of your journey. and the gifs were my favorite part ! ❤

[@sophiebrown9918]

So excited for this! I’m just about to finish my first year illustration degree too so it’s super interesting to see what other illustration students at different unis get up to!💛

Watched this morning, a Sunday morning, and I had a lovely time watching your journey. Thank you for sharing. I had the most marvelous time. ❤

Hello Em, just seen your videos today, and bought four of your prints. You are really inspiring me to do what I did at art school again. You could have added the word, "not" to the ugly cover. I am writing a few books, (novel, coffee table inspiring, and few picture books) and I thought a few months ago, that even though I am an artiste', 7 years of Tafe and Uni to become an art teacher, I thought someone else could do my illustrations. So, I have a few donkey books like yours, mock ups of layouts so just roughs of where information and pictures could go. I went to change to design, woodwork and metalwork, and graphics, but even still, I am not the best at drawing actions, or people in action, or animals in poses. So there is doubt there. Then I did Montessori, so again another 4 years and drawing lessons was part of every day. I think I prefer one off things in my own animation, not doing them too often, so I am not cut out, lol for the work as an illustrator. I don't really know about indesign, or gimp, or animation, except I did a bit in powerpoint for my book at uni. I have some domestika coruses to do in these, some in Spanish. However your journey shows, that just by doing it, you got better at it. Not only that but the teachers, giving you 100 aye ayes to do, naturally you have to do it more than once. In printmaking for example, my major I didn't like to do series of 5 the same. So, I think my nature of my own art practice is more raw, one offs, and when I do a series of 5 it is rare.... I appreciate your work, as it shows a lot of nature inspired things, without character movement at all, which is a bit like what I do. Have you taken your work to a publisher? Are you still at uni, Em? What uni? Are you on a list for illustrators, a platform so people can find you to hire you? Or do you do your own work, for your shop, and that is enough?

Your loose drawings are wonderful. I’d love to draw as you do. Do you ship stickers, etc to the USA?

[@eh-452]

Your work is amazing! I love the animations! What medium do you usually use when you do them traditionally?

[@catcat1526]

[@artwithem6635]

[@jessicaniven-charidge8291]

Hi, I'm starting an art diploma at my college and I'm still stuck on whether I would like to go to Uni or not. I was wondering if studying art at Uni is different to the art diploma. could you do a video on this? Thanks

[@venusmung]

Always love your arts, every time I see your arts, I feel so happy and they inspire me a lot😊 how many hours do you spend on making art every day?

[@artwithem6635]

It really depends! Some days I don’t draw anything and others I can be at it from waking up to going to sleep 😅 but on average probably and hour a day 😊

[@death__ray]
