Emelie Anna Glessner is a Swedish-born, American painter. Her work is influenced by the world and life, and she strives to create for her own children. A world rich in substance, characterized by childlike playfulness and innocence, grounded in strong family traditions, values, and community. 

Working predominantly with oils, her work celebrates the human connections which came before [and some will argue, died with] the global interconnectivity of today, as brought on by modern technology.

“My children are my biggest inspiration. They invite me back into a world, of which I once belonged, a world of magic and wonder.” Emelie A Glessner

Emelie is currently working, and raising her three children in the beautiful Catoctin Mountains, in Maryland, USA.
