Introducing "In Her Studio with Emilie Bird"
Start here.
This letter is a window into my studio, my creative musings, and artsy feelings. I also plan to share ways to see my work in art galleries as well as as special collection releases for my collectors.
Whenever I show up here, I hope to connect with you. I trust you will find something to take home with you, whether an emotion, a new perspective, a heartfelt story, design inspiration for your space, or just some warmth for your heart. I may throw in a book or podcast recommendation or a design tip.
My art-making process is an excavation of my emotions and memories. It’s intuitive, natural and messy. Both making the work and sharing the work bring a sense of relief and peace. Writing brings me some clarity; it helps me organize whatever I have uncovered.
Coming back to my creativity has been the most vulnerable, yet natural, journey I have embarked on. It did not, probably could not, happen alone on its own. I gathered with fellow creatives, immersed myself in the creative world, collected artwork and studied those who walked that path before I did. I am so grateful for this leap of faith. My paintings are a reflection of that evolution, from fear and helplessness to a sense of gratitude and hope.
A bit about me... I am an artist at heart, building my art practice and business, while mothering my lovely twin daughters, working a corporate job, and recovering from chronic stress and anxiety When I am not in the studio, and doing any of the above, I love slow mornings, learning something new, and cuddling with my pup.
I truly cannot wait to connect.
Talk soon, Emilie Bird
