About Emma

Hi there! My name is Emma Caley. I come from the Isle of Man originally and have lived in Vienna since 2003. I studied Surface Pattern Design in both the UK and Norway and I have worked as a textile designer in both Austria and Australia designing for the fashion and home furnishing industry. I came to Vienna for a design position after finishing University and began teaching English part-time to kindergarten and volksschule children. Gradually over time I have found myself teaching English more and designing less. I love teaching children, but I also love design. I wanted to balance both my passions for teaching and design, therefore the idea for Emma's Art Room was born!
