THINGS TO LOVE: EMILY HOY

I came across Emily Hoy's work today, and was impressed with the use of collage and color.

According to Emily, "I am proud of following my dreams and actually making them come true. These dreams include moving to California to work for a skate company (she's the Art director for Volcom girls), drumming in a band, making jewelry for a runway show, and running a half marathon."

When asked about the visual forms in her collages, Emily says "I really love the triangle and use it a lot. It's the most dynamic shape radiating so much energy. It's a great compliment to the organic mountainous shapes nature surrounds us with everyday. Injecting that with color makes my eyes melt!"
