I’m Emma Freeman, a Mixed Media Artist, Creative Writer and Expressive Arts Teacher living in Wisconsin. I love color, pattern, textiles, slow stitching, collage, words, painting, poetry, nature, heartfelt stories and deep, authentic conversations. I’m fascinated by people and the ways art making reveals itself as an innate human need for soul expression. Creativity, curiosity and enthusiasm have always been at the core of who I am. I have turned to art making in my hardest moments for healing and in my most joyful moments for play, fun and delight. I absolutely love sharing my passion for creativity through teaching and am obsessed with researching, reading and learning.
I’m also a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and have been sober since 2021.
