Hey, I'm Emma and I'm an illustrator. My social media career kicked off working for a body-positive lingerie brand called Figleaves. Unfortunately, I was made redundant in 2021, which is when I started drawing and I haven't been able to stop since!

However, positivity and self-love still run deep within all my work, and my goal has always been to make others feel good.

I now share my illustrations on my Instagram (almost) daily to my 30,000 followers. Here are some of my most loved illustrations. I hope you love them!

This is an excellent reminder! You are so very capable of fulfilling your goals, but like one of the other ones said, you can't pour from an empty cup so take time to sort out your priorities and take care of yourself!!! <3

I WISH I could just do that, I’m still in school… Stuck for years with exactly the same people who don’t understand me, all the while struggling with depression and schoolwork and everything basically… Thanks for reading all of my rant, BTW anyone open to a proper talk about mental illness? The only people I know never had or have depression, so I don’t really have anyone to talk to…

But can you not eat the 🍉🍑🍇🍎🍊🍋🍒🍅, then spit out the seeds and plant them on the same day?

But the way we experience things is based on how we feel about them. It's not easy to dump all your former feelings and thoughts.

I honestly really needed that, I have been so negative about what I deserve, and myself period, and that helps a lot, thank you

This applies SO MUCH to mental health and chronic illness, especially for people who don't have the choice but to "fake it" so they can work to support themselves, and give up all their non-work time recovering from the effort it takes to fake it. If you are suffering with severe depression or other mental illness, or an invisible illness and chronic pain, and were able to go to work, get home, AND do something you normally can't because of how you feel, you can and SHOULD be proud of that. If you are too sick to work, but got out of bed and fed yourself something, or took a shower, that's an accomplishment to be proud of. The success and progress you make shouldn't only be celebrated when it's tied to money or being slim or anything to do with capitalism. Progress of any kind when you are struggling to survive is something to be proud of

I take "thunder thighs" as a compliment. I also frequently request for my s/o to refer to me as "Her Royal Thighness"

I've never cared what anyone thought about me. Only thing is, I don't think well of myself, which is bad.

People who struggle with high expectations and perfectionism, this is so true!!! I care way too much about grades because of my parents so I feel pain in the pit of my stomach after I get less than an A on anything.

I told my doctor that I am more interested in being content right now than by being fashionably thin when I die.
