Illustration
From a live auction, a paid partnership, to a garden design book, Emmie Ruth celebrates her interests through her illustrations. She further expresses her artistic vision with illustration through videography and animation.
Stair Galleries + Mario Buatta
“It was almost as if I had the privilege of meeting Mario himself. Live painting a vignette of his collection during one of the BuattaCon auctions was a surreal experience as colleagues of his entertained me with their dazzling stories in fond memory of the Prince of Chintz.”
Stubbs & Wootton + John Derian
“It was through my painting at Stair that I was connected with the founder of Stubbs & Wootton. As a John Derian admirer, I knew immediately I wanted to illustrate the collaboration between the two arbiters of elegante.”

Color-Rich Gardening for the South: A Guide for All Seasons

“I have always wanted to illustrate a book, so I was delighted when Roxann contacted me. I have already learned so much from just illustrating this book; if my illustrations can similarly help facilitate learning for others as well, I will call it a success!”
