Emily Herschl Art and Photography

I have always felt a longing to create. Throughout my life, this has taken many forms: drawing, painting, writing, and photography. I love experimenting with different art forms and seeing how they affect the way I perceive the world. Drawing taught me to focus on the details. Painting taught me to express myself emotionally. Writing romanticized my thoughts and enticed me to notice simple beauty. I never thought I would be a photographer, but looking back, I almost always had a camera in hand, even before they were built into our phones. I barely paid attention in my high school photography class. The dark room wasn't for me.
