ABOUT ODDBALL !
Hi, my name is Emma, and welcome to Studio Oddball.
Oddball is an art studio based in Montréal, Canada run by me, myself and I, dedicated to inspiring people to be themselves through the power of art.
My mission is to change the world by embracing the hard things and laughing at the silly things.
Join me on my journey and let me help you unlock your inner oddball.
​
Life's too short to not be yourself anyway.
xoxo Emma
THE STORY
The Oddball began as a simple abstract symbol that I began drawing over and over because something about it enraptured me: a circle with two lines through it. It felt simple but mysterious, and I was determined to attribute some meaning to it.
​
Years later, the Oddball, as it stands, has become a symbol that distills the essence of myself and my art; the circle representing the cycles of life, which I explore frequently in my art, and the abrupt lines running through it representing the unexpected and a break from the norm.
​
(With a dot for a little bit of zhuzh.)
The Oddball philosophy is to embrace yourself, explore new things, and make mistakes.
