Emily Steinberg, Artist

Art Form

It’s remarkable to think how some names seem uncommon until you ~~google~~ search online. Many medical practitioners and other pedigreed professionals come up so I felt inspired to dedicate a post to reflect on the colorful charms of contemporary artist Emily Steinberg, whose resume speaks for itself, as well as her work.

Paradoxically, this site came up Graphic Medicine with a spotlight on Emily. The full graphic narrative too.

Bragging Rights

Well for one, she’s had the honor of having a classic New Yorker cartoon having been published, “Hot Pilgrim” and a Shouts and Murmurs piece too.

Fine Artist

But of course one doesn’t get there just by chance. You can find extensive library of her graphic novel works on her own website, and her fine arts and more, some of my favorites being her teacup series.

Emily has painted many cool teacups. Savor them.

She is featured on many other cool art sites I’ll just list here as I find them:

Graphic Novelist

The Comics Journal which has some very nice autobiographical serials there:

On a good day, Emily will crush you at Wordle

Cleaver Magazine has a nice intro paragraph preceding a host of her works there:

Video Interview

Wheelhouse Art which also features a video interview with Emily:

And I guess must be worth mentioning to social media fans her instagram.

Book Author

Perhaps would be remiss if didn’t conclude with her awesome book, Graphic Therapy, if I could only find the proper link to share for it. So here’s the cover, you can find it where you will.

In conclusion, it seems she is indeed a pedigreed practitioner of graphical arts wellness. Thus concludes our post today.
