Artist Insights: The Beauty of Birds

Hallmark sat down with Emma to discuss her Tufted Titmouse ornament releasing in March this year. Enjoy!

The inspiration for the 18th in series ornament was a collaboration between Emma and retired Keepsake Artist Edythe Kegrize. Emma said, “the Tufted Titmouse was a sketched design that Edythe had already finished before retiring. From there, it was my responsibility to make sure I kept with Edythe’s vision while sculpting. In that way, it was kind of like an extra step of practice before taking over the series completely.” We can’t wait to see where Emma’s takes this series in the future! Do you agree?

When Emma mentioned she brought Edythe’s vision to life while sculpting, we had more questions and Emma answered! Of her process, she mentioned, “it was sculpted entirely digitally! Which is always a bit tricky when starting from a 3D sketch, but not really anything new for Keepsake artists.”
