Emma McCarthy Illustrator
Aum Patel
Hello!
My name is Emma McCarthy, I have a great eye for color, composition, and I have a passion for storytelling. My work is whimsical and can bring a story to life! I excel at making compact illustrations with a lot of small stories incorporated into the design. I make art that brings magic and wonder into the lives of others. I am a multi-medium artist and have experience in everything from digital art to clay mediums and woodworking. A large amount of my digital work resembles my passion for traditional work by bringing in textures and a great pop of color.
I am an ambitious artist and once I get started on a project it’s hard for me to stop until it’s done right. I am always coming up with new creative solutions and better ideas to improve the message of the work as a whole. One of my most recent projects was a mural in an elevator and I spent over 70 hours working on it. I sketched, digitally perfected, mapped, chose color palettes and collected materials for this project. I painted over 175 square feet by myself on an active elevator. This experience was published in RIT’s news website as a part of the creative innovation and student experience categories.
