About
Amber Valravn is the otherworldly counterpart of the artist Emma Creighton-Offord (who we talk about below)...
Her adventures inhabit a space between the magical world and our own, like dreams, or the imagination of a child.
Studying magical creatures and the pocket worlds that let them live around us, Amber Valravn brings magic to life in sketches, paintings. Many of Amber's discovered creatures dwell in verdant forests, deep lochs, misty moors and ruined castles. Mischievous tricksters, serene magical beasts and strangely familiar creatures with elements of our own fauna have all been documented by the artist and explorer.

Ourside of creative endeavours, Emmie enjoys exploring castles and forests with husband Danov and three sons. Emmie also loves boardgames, folk metal music, anime, and foreign language romantic dramas and is a self confessed nerd.
