About Emily

I have been sculpting since 2001, and have been involved with some form of art most all my life. I have always had a love for fantastic creatures and draw most of my inspiration from wildlife and nature. I very much enjoy designing my own creatures, from concept to finished sculpture.

I live in Orlando, Florida. I am presently employed at Full Sail University in the Computer Animation Department where I teach traditional art. I also do freelance sculpture work and am currently writing a book on getting started in sculpture. I am also developing my 3D modeling skills using zBrush and Maya.

For the most part, I am a self taught artist. I graduated in 2000 with a degree in Digital Media and decided it wasn't the field for me. I learned what I know mostly from anatomy books. I've developed a lot of my own techniques over the years and have borrowed many from an array of talented sculptors.

I work mainly with Sculpey products, but also use castilene wax for some projects. I make my own molds and casts and hand paint all of my own pieces.

While I no longer take private commissions, I am available for commercial freelance projects.
