You're Never Too Young to Make Monsters
Meet 15-year-old prodigy artist Emka Klučovská aka "Ema", from Slovakia. She draws in pencil, airbrushes cars, sculpts digital creatures in ZBrush, Photoshop's monsters with big teeth... and she’s even a FALCONER!
That’s right, her best friend is a bird almost as large as she is…
Thank you Emka. Your passion for the arts and making monsters has taught us all a valuable lesson to “Never give up!"
We hope you all will be as inspired by Emka's story as we all are.

Meet Art Prodigy Emka Klučovská
"Hello, my name is Emka, I’m 15 years old."
(Emka Klučovská works on a portrait of an owl using her digital drawing table.)
"I live in Slovakia and I draw monsters and creatures with sharp teeth."
(Emka's dragon, created in Photoshop.)

"I’m also a Falconer."
(Emka poses with her falcon. Her love of birds was the early inspiration for her drawings.)
"When I was two years old, I started drawing birds."
(Birds drawn by Emka Klučovská.)
"And I then I saw an Alien movie and drew something, not a bird, but it had sharp teeth and blood. My parents were like 'Oh, my goodness!'"
(Emka moves from birds to aliens.)
"Here it is. My first Alien."
(Emka with her alien. Once she started drawing imaginary creatures, she never went back.)
"My dream is to become a professional designer of characters for movies."
(More of Emka's recent imaginative work.)
"I really love Robert Downey Jr., and I really love the Iron Man movies."
(Iron Man, as drawn by self-admitted RDJ fan, Emka Klučovská.)
"But I do not study at Arts School. In my country, I don’t have opportunity. I’m just watching tutorials and almost everyday I visit an animation studio where I have a teacher who teaches me how to draw and how to animate."
(Recent designs by Emka Klučovská created in Z-Brush.)
(Emka's talent knows no bounds; here, she decorates the family car.)
