About Me

My name is Emma Black, I am 24 years old from Aberdeen, Scotland. I met my husband, Morgan at the Mudd Club, Palace Nightclub, back in 1999, we started dating in 2000 and got married in 2003!! Our son, Zachariah Frederick Black aka Zach, was born on the 16th September 2006 (10 days overdue) at 1:42am weighing a healthy 9lbs 2.5oz, he is just the cutest thing ever! We are both very proud parents! We also have a Labradoodle called Flora who is wired to the moon but we love her!In 2004 we set off on an adventure to New Zealand, stopping off in Singapore. We lived and worked in NZ for nearly a year and hoped to stay longer but shit happens and we headed back to Scotland. We spent the last year up in Inverness where i worked in the Ladieswear department of Next. I make hand-made jewellery from the NZ Paua shell and books made with my own hand-made paper. I currently exhibit and sell my work at the Squashed Frog Studio in Glenmoriston. We decided to move back to Aberdeen to be close to family and friends. We have settled back in Aberdeen and are very happy to be back.* Get Your Own! | View Slideshow

My Interests

I love anything crafty (in the art sense of the word!) I make handmade jewellery and books. I was very inspired during my time in New Zealand and have a HUGE collection of photographs that i plan to print onto canvases. I love watching movies and walking my Labradoodle Flora. Zach takes up all of my time at the mo but i love watching him discovering something new every day.

Jools Oliver book about being pregnant is a must read for any mother to be! High Fidelity, Wee Free Men, Eragon, Where the Wild Things Are. Also love my art and fairy books.
