“Amazing experience from beginning to end. Emilie gives back to the musicians she draws when she sells the piece, a wonderful way to support the whole art scene.”

Sandy
Gallery customer

“Your work visualizes the energy of the music and in so doing captures ( does not freeze) the spontaneity of the jazz moments.  There seems to be oneness between you, the drawing activity/experience and the music that I imagine to be meditative. You have a strong hand.”

Edgar
Artist

“This piece captures the spirit of Preservation Hall for me, from the intimacy and ‘closeness’ of the space, to how some musicians are resting quietly while other are jammin’, to the audience who is absorbing it in each their own way and world, that is exactly how it looked to me.”

Shannon
Gallery customer

Ethan

Lynn
