Happy first Friday! Meet Emily, our newest artist joining us on October 3rd!

🎃 Emily makes her art out of recycled materials and loves to showcase animals, sparkles, and fabric in her pieces. For Halloween she's bringing a twist inspired by horror films, comics and science fiction pop culture. Emily is a local hippie, gardener, cosplayer, zookeeper, and has too many hobbies as a mom but wants to share her sparkle with the Des Moines area! It's been a lifelong dream of Emily's to showcase her work in an art show that appreciates the beauty in the bizarre and the weirdly wonderful so we think she is the perfect fit for The Gabriel House!
