Emily Lovejoy is a New Orleans based multidisciplinary artist working across painting and photography. Her current painting practice centers on abstraction, color, intuition, and the emotional presence of everyday life. Her work is interested in what can be felt before it can be articulated.

Each painting begins with an intention. Lovejoy thinks of color, composition, gesture, and the physical process of painting as carrying a particular frequency, and she approaches each work as an opportunity to shift the energy of the space it enters and the people who encounter it. Her creative practice is strongly connected with her spiritual practice, with each continually informing the other. The intention is not simply to make something beautiful, but to create an experience that can meet the viewer where they are and, perhaps, raise their frequency.

Her photographic practice is rooted in the same attention to presence. She photographs architecture, interiors, people, still life, and increasingly the natural world, looking for the smaller moments that reveal something about a place, a person, or a particular moment in time. Whether photographing things in her garden or making an abstract painting, she is interested in creating, capturing, and sharing beauty.

Lovejoy earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts with an emphasis on painting from the University of New Orleans and founded Lovejoy Creative in 2020.
