Emily Pullin

Artist + Emily Pullin

I am a mixed media artist in North Louisiana.   I live in Ruston with my husband, Matt, two sons, Henry and Sam, and our two German Shorthaired Pointers - Henley (as in Don) and Frey (as in Glenn).  I graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a Bachelor of Interior Design and a Masters in Teaching (Art Education). I have always loved the arts and have been drawn to creating since a young age.  I currently teach elementary art, in addition to working as a professional artist.  I am also the co-owner of perfectly curated shop in Ruston, Louisiana - The Collective: art, gifts, & paper. 

As an artist, I work primarily in acrylic and mixed media – collage, china marker, graphite and oil pastel. I have always been drawn to the contrast created between architectural lines and shapes and the more organic flow of our natural surroundings. In my work, I strive to create a balance of rigid lines among layers of loose marks and color.  Every piece is a raw and authentic expression of my thought and emotion – my experiences. Each layer is a snapshot of thought and dictates the next. My work tells my story, my hope is that the viewer can find their own story embedded within a given piece.
