Hello
I’m Emma
I create original WALL ART for homes and workspaces that invites you to slow down, stop and breathe. Taking inspiration from the beautiful British countryside, my work reflects the seasons & ever-changing light; exploring the relationship between human emotion and the natural world.
My artworks are produced using acrylics and oils, adding energy and dimension to each piece by creating interesting surface textures through layering, rubbing back, varying weights of application, visible brush strokes and the use of mixed media.
When I'm not at an easel, brush in hand and paint in hair, I can usually be found seeking inspiration on long walks with my 2 loopy labradors or sitting outside with the sun on my face.
As a child, I naturally gravitated towards creativity – with a love for textiles, art and creative writing during my school days. I went on to study fashion and textiles at degree level and followed with a career in the clothing industry. Whilst taking a break to raise my young son, I rediscovered my childhood passions and trained in further design disciplines, eventually working on a freelance basis in graphics and surface pattern design. However, as so much work was produced digitally, I missed the simplicity and freedom of creating by hand, and so several years ago returned to painting - inspired by the landscapes and feelings I encountered on those long countryside dog walks.
