Emilia Valerio

My dad said I’ve been doing art since I could hold a pencil. I zoomed past the phase of doubting myself and never stopped drawing. I think it just comes naturally to me. It also runs in the family, my dad is an artist, my dad’s dad is an artist.

I want the viewer to be able to look at my work and feel the painting. I want them to see my art how they would see it, as most of my work holds meaning to myself and others.
