About

Arkansas native, Emily Russell specializes in watercolor, pastels, and graphite, though she works in many mediums. Her love of horses, dogs and other livestock is often reflected in her work. 

Growing up on a farm, she found peace in nature and her rural upbringing continues to motivate and inspire her today. She has a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Business from Arkansas Tech University with a minor in Art. Emily currently resides in Perry, AR with her husband and two children. Working as a credit analyst at Farm Credit during the day, she often spends her nights and weekends working on commissions and original artworks. As a family, the Russells raise quarter horses that they also train and show. Emily is most proud to see her children grow up with both a love of nature and farm life as well as art!
