About Me

Hey there, I’m 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, world mythology, human relationships with nature, and the ways these stories interweave. I make linocut block prints as well as drawings in many mediums from my home studio in SE Portland. When not printing I enjoy reading, cooking, and being hunted for sport by my nine pound cat, Precious. If you ever come over for dinner, please excuse the ink stains.
