What can I expect in a session with Emily?

Every session will begin precisely where it must: exactly where you are. Although our time together will be guided by your specific needs and intentions, you can always expect to enter into an open space of curiosity, exploration, and discovery.

Depending on the type of session you choose and your individual goals, we may look for consistencies in your technical approach and identify areas of strength and areas for growth. We may chart various aspects of your art and art-making process, looking to uncover patterns of meaning that are already inherent in your work. We may discuss your core interests and influences, and use them as nodes around which to constellate new layers of meaning. We will undoubtedly engage in careful analysis, make connections, and strive to bring your art or art writing into clear alignment with your inner vision.

Wherever our time together takes us, you can be assured that I will be working alongside you to help you deepen and expand your artistic practice. As wayfinders on a beautiful yet challenging path, we will make certain that you receive the support, tools, and resources needed to make your next passage. I look forward to sharing the journey with you!
