About The Artist

Hello! My name is Emily Kim. My journey as an artist started when I was very young. I was diagnosed with leukemia at age 3 and even after several years of treatments, my cancer returned when I was 7. I underwent a successful life-saving cord blood stem cell transplant, but I suffered complications resulting in permanent and progressive neurological damage. While in and out of hospitals, I spent my time drawing and doing jigsaw puzzles (still one of my favorite pastimes) because it made me happy. Despite many setbacks and obstacles over the years, my love for drawing and creating cheerful prints has continued to grow. The themes of my art are positivity, hope, whimsy, and imagination. I like to create drawings with bright colors that bring joyful and happy thoughts.
