So let us pick up
the stones over which we stumble,
friends, and build altars.
-from Pádraig Ó Tuama’s poem, Oremus
I’m Emma Freeman, a Heart-Led Contemplative Mixed Media Artist, Joyful Art Teacher and Massage Therapist. I love exploring slow, meaningful and fun creative expression and connecting with people through mindful art making. I love textiles, slow stitching, mixed media collage, color, texture, gathering nature to create with and book making. Compassion, kindness, peace, wabi sabi philosophy and simplicity inspire me. I’m sober, a Highly Sensitive Person and Buddhist. You can learn more about me here.
