Peaceful glimpses into the lives of our precious local wildlife.

Emily Livengood is a Seattle based artist whose recent focus has been to capture the perceived playfulness, mystery or pain of her avian subjects via both intense observation and loose representation.  Emily grew up in both Georgia and Wisconsin and migrated out to Washington State after studying Ecology and Biological Illustration at Iowa State University.  She has since worked as both a Wildlife Biologist and a Wildlife Rehabilitator and is currently a Naturopathic Medicine student at Bastyr University. 

"The greater the efforts we make to fathom the secrets of the birds, the more our knowledge expands, the clearer becomes our realization that the secrets of the birds will remain mysteries of nature as long as she abounds with the miracles of life."
