Emily Stewart

STUDIO

I am lucky to create inside a repurposed Ford Motors Showroom nearly 35 years after my grandfather had an office in the same building.

MEDIUM

I utilize acrylics, oil pastels, and mixed media.

BIO

As a child, Emily Stewart had a penchant for creating messes, rearranging furniture on a whim, and playing her bassoon far above tolerable decibel levels. Believing she needed to "grow up," she earned an accountancy degree from LaGrange College and entered the corporate world. A dream of a creative life still called her, so she resigned during the pandemic and returned to her native Brunswick, Georgia to start over — on her own terms this time.

Today, she serves homeowners and businesses alike through her art, design, and installations. She explores color, movement, and texture through an intuitive and layered process, using bold colors and experimental applications of acrylics, mixed media, and oil pastels. She hopes her work inspires others to approach life with a childlike curiosity and imagination.
