My Bio
Emily graduated from Arcadia University in 2006 with a BFA in Illustration.
During her time there she was trained in a wide variety of traditional art but found that she often had too much of a mathematical approach to art and lacked the “free flowing” nature of many of her peers’ work. Then she was forced to take courses in Science Illustration for her major. Never before had she been encouraged to obsess over the intricacies of a piece. She dove down the rabbit hole and has never cared to climb back out.
Recently Emily made her escape from corporate America and is venturing out on her own.
Yes she can be bought! For commissions, projects, purchases or just to talk shop contact Emily at emily@ectmills.com or follow her on twitter and see new works in progress, DamunchTheThird.

So I came across a video recently which, in addition to being a nice look into the artist’s process, makes an excellent point about how to create interest in your work. Figures and landscapes can be rendered beautifully, seen, appreciated and quickly passed by. But the art that draws people in, makes them ask questions and actively think about your work tells some kind of story.
But saying you need to tell a story is the easy part, how do you train skills in storytelling? As always the answer is practice, but just as important is finding the right stories to tell. What happens if you want to add more storytelling into your work but

So I've been experimenting with the different levels the same compositions can be worked to. I have vague plans to turn this into a tool for custom orders so clients can get a feel for what level of work would be most appropriate for their project and how the pricing varies. I'll be posting the first four images showing inkwork on smaller paper today.
