Sleepless by Emily Considine

Emily is a Washington-based illustrator who grew up on the California coast. She earned her BFA in Art & Design from the University of Michigan’s Stamps School of Art & Design. Her work has appeared in exhibitions with Greenpoint Art Circle, Light Grey Art Lab, Creal Microgallery, and the Stamps Gallery, as well as publications including Xylem Literary Magazine and NYC Zine Club.
