nice to meet you

Meet Emily Hayes

Emily Hayes, the artist behind Emilynn Design
hey y'all!

I'm Emily — a Carolina Girl, Wife, and Mother of Five

Art has always been an underlying chord in my life. Musical art, edible art, and visual art are woven across its seasons — from school-days orchestra to newborn-season quilting, naptime crafting to screentime sourdough. And now I'm back to school days (my children's edition), painting with watercolor and acrylic!

I remember 7th grade, when my love for painting first clicked. We were sent outside to paint a pond in the impressionist style of Monet. My painting was chosen to hang in the halls, and a new joy opened in my heart.

I'm inspired by my Father's wonderfully designed world all around me — inspired to paint the wonders I behold. As an image bearer of the Lord, I seek to create images for His glory and the good of the viewer.

So nice to meet you! I hope you enjoy looking through my art — please reach out to say hello or let me know how I can help. Welcome!
