Emotional Emus
My mother was also an artist. She passed away from cancer in 2024 when I was 28. One of her ink paintings, a quirky, colourful emu, is hanging on the wall near our kitchen table. Every day, it brings a smile to my face as it is full of so much character and emotion.
I hope my emus also gives people a lot of joy.

Emus put smiles on faces. With their long legs, wingless bodies, booming voices, and boundless enthusiasm, each emu possesses unique personality traits that reflect their naturally inquisitive, friendly, and social demeanour.
Did you know?
The Emu is Australia’s tallest native bird. Second tallest in the world
They can’t fly! but they can run at speeds of up to 48 km per hour
Australia is the only country in the world where you will find an Emu in the wild.
Emus swallow large pebbles to help their stomach grind up food
Females lay the eggs, but the males hatch and raise the young
1932 Australian troops were dumbfounded when they found themselves outmanoeuvred by clever birds during the Emu Wars.
