Hello! My name is Emily Marie and I am a watercolor artist from Wisconsin.  Before I started my art business, I worked for 10 years as an elementary school teacher.  I use all the skills (and patience) I learned as a school teacher when I'm teaching all my in-person watercolor workshops.  

As a dog mom myself, one of the first subjects I started painting was dogs!  I've painted hundreds of different dogs and lots of different breeds.  I started teaching intermediate classes via SkillShare and I also teach in-person beginners during my local "Paint your Pup" nights.  I love being able to donate a portion of my class to local pet rescues since my dog Trufa is also a rescue dog!

My other passion when painting is botanicals.  My husband and I used to live in Guadalajara, Mexico, so a lot of my botanical paintings are of cacti, agave, or tropical plants.  Although I do have a fairly detail-oriented style, I do love to let the water do it's magic while I'm painting.  

I love to share tips for small business artists as well as reviews of art supplies on my Instagram:

I'm excited to share my art journey with you!  As an instructor, I am also looking to make my classes better- so please don't hesitate to leave me a comment or suggestion for the future!
