About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Clarity of mind plus fun and silly times

ABOUT ME

Helloooo, I am Emerson. Finishing up my education, thennn, I dunno, haha. So, about me . . . I always try to keep an open mind so if I ever feel a negative judgment of someone forming in my brain I smack myself in the head to make it go away. I try to treat people the way I would like to be treated, and despite this being a cliché, I have found it to serve me well so far. Let's be nice and let's have fun!

I spend a lot of my time painting and making music. In the summers I spend more time making sand castles, but still makin lots of music. (I get paid to play on the beach. Cool, right?)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time I went to Ireland I flew over Greenland and Iceland as the sun was rising. What a landscape! Sweeet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my limited guitar and ukulele knowledge . . . If there's sand near by I can show you how to build a pretty cool sandcastle.

We could also set up a still life and go over the basics of 3-d illusionary space, but that might be boring.
