« My work focuses on light and colour. I use vibrant but naturalistic colour to bring attention to the extraordinary beauty of both landscapes and everyday scenes. »
Emma Cownie is a talented British artist whose works have featured in exhibitions and publications across the UK. Always seeking to achieve a strong visual impact, she composes works marked by bold blocks of colour and an expressive palette that is widely used in modern art and pop art. Influenced by great American realists like Edward Hopper, Cownie paints the quiet, the spacious and the still.
