About Me!
My name is Emma Handlos and I am a guest illustrator based out of Austin, Tx. Ever since I was a kid, I have always loved creating art and getting to share it with others. Back in 2019, when I was a Junior in high school, I decided to turn this passion into a small business and that’s how Handlosmade came to be! I’d paint custom designs on vinyl records, Bibles, denim jackets and sell them on Etsy. But now, I’ve decided to shake things up a bit and dive into live guest illustrations.
While getting my Bachelors in Marketing and a minor in Creative Studies at Texas A&M I decided to pursue this venture and got my start drawing at sorority formals and date parties. Ever since my first event, I’ve been pouring most of my free time into honing my craft and capturing precious memories for others.
Some Things I Love
Fitness
I love being active and playing sports with my friends and family. My current obsession is playing pickleball but I also really enjoy golf, soccer, and running!
Travel
I enjoy exploring nature and going on adventures. One of my all-time favorite destinations has to be Sedona, Arizona.”
Reading
Have any book recommendations? I’d love to hear them! When I’m not sketching, you’ll often find me lost in a good book.”
