About Me

My name is Ema. I am an artist, printmaker, and illustrator based in Portland, Oregon. In my work I am drawn again and again to the human figure and the meaning it conveys. I am interested in themes of gender, sexuality, human relationships with nature, and the ways these stories interweave. I make linocut block prints as well as illustrations in many mediums from my home studio in East Portland. If you ever come over for dinner, please excuse the ink stains.
