Hello from Emmi!

Hi, I’m Emmi, the artist behind Hello Elks!

I’m an illustrator and surface designer based in Melbourne, Australia. I create bright, playful illustrations and patterns for products that bring a little ray of sunshine to your day!

When I’m not in the studio, you’ll likely find me curled up with a great story, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, or hanging out with my super cute and fluffy dog, Winston. I pretty much always have a new hobby on the go. Lately, I’ve been getting my hands dirty in the garden, learning to grow my own veggies! Pretty cool, if you ask me.

If that sounds like your cup of tea, you might also enjoy following along on Instagram or Substack, where I share more of my personal creative journey — behind-the-scenes glimpses, thoughts on art and life, and the real (sometimes messy!) stuff that comes with building a creative business.
