Meet Emily

Hello there! I’m Emily Joynton, an illustrator and designer originally from Texas, now based in Philadelphia. I graduated from Maryland Institute College of Art with my MFA in Illustration Practice in 2017 and am continuing to carve out my place in the illustration & design industries. I’ve spent time as a textile designer, a senior art director, and now I’m a full-time freelancer.

I'm passionate about the outdoors, beautiful design, and making funny little drawings. I also love to roller skate and incorporate it into as much of my work as I can. I have a cat named Chita Rivera, play the fiddle, and am working my way through the WSET wine courses (passed Level 2 with distinction, baby!).

Do you think I’d be a good fit for your project? Wanna chat about Philly? Looking for roller skate recommendations or advice? I love to connect with people - hop over to the Contact tab and drop me a line anytime!
