Hi! If you have found yourself here on purpose- welcome! If you have found yourself here by accident- also welcome but not quite as enthusiastically. I hope you all stick around 🙂
My name is Emilia and I’m an artist living in Omaha, Nebraska. I moved here almost a year ago and right now, I’m preparing artwork for a gallery here who wants to represent me. 4 huge flower paintings along with some photos from a photo shoot that I plan on doing in the middle of October.
I’m really enjoying Omaha so far and it’s closer to my family (Lincoln) and not too far from Sioux Falls where I have gallery representation at Piper Arts Gallery. I frequently need to drive there for work and my best friend lives there too, so I love seeing him!
This has been just a little bit about me. I’ll be talking more about my art process and the new things happening in my life as time goes on and at the very least, I hope you get a chuckle out of it. I know my mom finds me funny so you might too!
