How about a brief introduction?
I’m Emma, and I love to draw! My favourite subject are birds, especially owls. My work focuses on British cultural traditions and wildlife, as well as food and its relation to national and cultural identity.

What’s your goal before the year 2010 ends?
To get better at drawing people! Other than that… work on some exciting projects with awesome people, expand my portfolio, perhaps make a book…

What’s your biggest fear?
Honestly? Waking up aged 30 and finding that I haven’t done anything with my life! Fortunately I still have a good few years left to work hard and have lots of amazing experiences.

What’s your favorite tool?
I think a nice 2B pencil is my very favourite… or a lovely drawing pen.

Share something random with us!
Erm, I’m not really sure what to put… guess I’m not that much of a random person! Pink was originally a boy’s colour, and blue was for girls – my favourite snack is a banana jam sandwhich – McDonald’s burgers contain so much sugar that if it wasn’t for the gherkins in them, they’d be classified as a dessert – will that do?
