Emma Scribbans

I am a professional freelance artist and community arts facilitator based in Fleet, Hampshire, with over 25 years’ experience working across London and the South East. I specialise in plasticine model making, mosaics, and printmaking, delivering inclusive, hands-on workshops through my business Art for Everyone. I work with people of all ages and abilities in schools, festivals, community settings, and care environments. I believe passionately in the power of creativity to support wellbeing, build confidence, and bring communities together, creating fun and supportive spaces where everyone is encouraged to explore their own artistic potential.

I am a visual artist who works across a range of media, originally crochet and textile but more recently in sculpture, installation and performance. I have a sensory approach to connecting to materials, most of them domestic recycled waste. I am very interested in experimentation and cross collaborations with artists from other disciplines and also outside of the field of the arts. Across the years, my practice has delved into the visual and metaphorical links between neuroscience and crochet, the cracking and transformations of womanhood after the menopause and more recently the opening and reconnecting to nature.

Hello I’m Emma and I’m a Graphic Recorder and Illustrator. I create hand drawn visuals to capture content and tell stories – it’s my job to visualise your content so people love it, remember it, and keep coming back to it. As a Graphic Recorder I draw live at events and meetings to capture the key ideas and outcomes. As an Illustrator I create hand drawn digital images to tell stories and explain complex information. My work is, colourful, fun and creative. It starts conversations and helps connect ideas and people. It’s mind-catching and memorable. It’s eye-catching, printable and easily shareable.
