She grew up in a family of craftspeople and has always been a maker and artist. Her early "career" days were spent working for hospitality art consulting firms where she learned about interior design, the business side of art making and sales, printing, framing, shipping, and working with clients. She was making art and pursuing all sorts of creative projects in the background while holding down a day job consulting. Having kids was really the catalyst for her to get back into the studio-and over time she was able to transition from consulting work to the full time studio practice Ink + Indigo has become. She is inspired by all things art, design, craft, travel, nature, and Atlanta's creative community.Check out Emily's Business Website: Ink & IndigoSign up for her newsletter for behind-the-scenes of the studio, upcoming classes, creative inspiration, and business insights!Grab Your Toolkit for Artful Collaborations - This Artist's Guide to Working with Art Consultants + Interior Designers is jam-packed with info that will get you well on your way to working within this niche.Find Emily on Instagram @inkandindigoCheck out Emily's first episode on Made Remarkable It only happens once a year - The remarkable FREE experience starts July 23rd!
