About
Emma is a self taught artist working predominantly in Oil and Graphite currently splitting her time between East Sussex and Hampshire. Taking an early interest in art she began drawing at a young age, greatly inspired by nature and the surrounding landscape.
Spending many years working in London as a clinical research coordinator she has fairly recently returned to art and painting in oil specifically, working from close observation and the study of painting.
The natural world is still at the heart of her artwork, the beauty of form in small things, a still life or portrait study, a garden view or a sweeping Lake District landscape. Light and colour and reflection. She is rarely happier than when on top of a Cumbrian peak or beside a lake on a bright breezy day.
Emma is very much an emerging artist, exploring new themes and ideas and seeking to develop and refine her practice.
