Mint Chocolate Chip

Emily — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 01:00:21 +0000

It’s probably obvious by now that I’m a sucker for anything with stripes. So of course I was drooling over the Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs Spring/Summer 2013 collections – stripes in every size and color! A little bit of fashion inspiration found its place in my new piece – a private commission for a friend - Mint Chocolate Chip.

Go Team AIR!

Here’s a little peek at my day job – and the amazing team of people I work with! Take a look at our video here . Special thanks to Kit Lee and Gabe Ostley for their mad film-making skills and for putting this together.

DACS Reclaim

Emily — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 03:31:17 +0000

It’s not often I get to team up with designers, illustrators, and artists from around the world to do something useful, so I was privileged to join forces with DACS – Designers Against Child Slavery at their recent exhibition in New York City. DACS is a US-based non-profit group that invites artists from all over the world to utilize their unique skill sets and talents to raise awareness about the world’s sex trade, as well as to create a source of funding for the prevention and restoration of survivors of trafficking.

Art and design is a such a powerful form of communication, and DACS is dedicated to using it to bring change to the world. With over 2 million children alone enslaved in the global sex trade, making a difference seems to be a daunting task, but there is hope! In partnership with The Blind Project, DACS recently hosted an art exhibition entitled Reclaim on December 3rd in New York City. Out of the numerous artistic contributions from around the globe, all of the artworks sold! It’s incredibly exciting that art can be used to raise awareness and to make a change. Thanks again to DACS; I’m thrilled that I could be a part of this.

Christmas Cookies for Lane Crawford

Emily — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 03:28:42 +0000

December seemed like it came out of nowhere this year – and January has certainly flown past! A bit late posting over here, but I wanted to share the Christmas cookies I designed (uh, not baked) for Lane Crawford’s Shopping Weekend this past December. Trust me, I’m not as skilled in the baking department as I am with a brush and paint (or Photoshop in this case), so a few local bakeries interpreted my designs into crispy sugar cookies with cheery frosting and fondant. Here’s my illustrated alphabet (in cookie form!) and a peek at Lane Crawford’s gorgeous Christmas displays below. Photos taken by me, but thanks to Lane Crawford for letting me happily snap away at my designs and their displays!

MISCHA 4th Anniversary

Emily — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 02:21:43 +0000

Here’s a little peek at what I’ve been up to recently. Hong Kong designer Michelle Lai of MISCHA and I got together to do a little collaboration for her bag & luggage brand’s 4th Anniversary. Using MISCHA’s signature honeycomb pattern, I created a series of wanderlust-inspired illustrations to go along with the theme for the 4th Anniversary event. My illustrations feature the globetrotting MISCHA girl in some of her favorite cities – Hong Kong, Tokyo, Rome, London, New York, and Paris! Each illustration also features a different bag from the MISCHA collection.

The night of the event had a huge turnout, with guests enjoying all the prerequisites for a great party – shopping, nibbles, fabulous cocktails, and of course, a photobooth! Blogger and author Geneva Vanderzeil of A Pair and a Spare held a fun DIY session using MISCHA’s vintage obi fabrics, and we also held a silent auction for the illustrations, with proceeds going towards MISCHA’S chosen charity, Mother’s Choice. Five out of six pieces sold on the night, and bids for Tokyo (pictured below) are still open!

Check out some party pics and my illustrations below.

Illustrations for Ellermann Flower Boutique

Emily — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 03:41:09 +0000

Apologies for the delay in posting over here! I’m still in the process of getting used to blogging on this site rather than my old blog. So bear with me while I organize myself and gather together some projects from this past summer.

Here’s one to start things off. I recently did some illustrations for one of my favorite flower boutiques in Hong Kong, Ellermann Flowers. The Ellermann team wanted a bit of an update for their website, so they opted for illustrations to make things a bit friendlier and more suitable to the creative mood they that defines their shop. Click through the site to see the work I did for their Boutique, Service & Pricing, and Who We Are

And in case you’re too lazy for that, I’ve added a few previews below.
