EMILY JONES

Emily Jones (born 2002, based in Tacoma, WA) makes art in many mediums

Her work deals with past memories and current feelings. As they move through life, they find more to make work about. Whether that's breakthroughs in therapy, or general appreciation for the beauty of the world. She feels that all experiences have value, and that art can be extremely healing. As they continue their practice, they hope to learn more and experiment with everything they come across- learning through mistakes and successes both.
