I’m Em, an Illustrator and Visual Designer in Portland, OR. My focus is Editorial and Event Illustration. I am a survivor of Domestic Violence and I take my life experiences into my work by using empathy, and at times a little bit of darkness to convey stories in a way that is relatable. I am a multi-media Queen- seasoned in digital and hand rendered work to best draw the eye to the heart of the content. My style is inspired by illustrative typography, expressive lines, and human connection. You can find me at home in Portland’s Alberta Art District, testing out retro color swatches in Illustrator, wheatpasting my art on abandoned buildings and cooking with my teenager.
