Because I wish for my art to be taken seriously, and for people who "like" my art to be fans who enjoy it in its own right (versus liking my art pages because they think I'm attractive), I prefer to keep my modeling and art fanbases very separate. I strongly feel that people should become fans of my art on the basis of my talent alone, and for how the images themselves may touch others' hearts and souls.
If people were to only like my creations on the basis of my fame and physical appearance- if I had to name-drop to be seen as talented- if I had to rely on anything other than my creations themselves for people to see my work as worthy of a glance- I would be unworthy of the title "artist".
That being said, I do still occasionally receive sad messages from my modeling fans asking why I stopped posting my work- and because I initially received such overwhelming kindness and support from my "Emily Astrom" fans concerning my artistic forays, I feel I owe it to you all to be able see my growth as an artist and painter.
So, for your viewing pleasure, here is my work. Because I am keeping things so separate, I cannot link to anything here, BUT if you want to buy anything you see here as a print, please don't hesitate to contact me.
