My Home Somewhere #3 Painting Study

This is my latest Art challenge in the studio. What I'm doing is painting small, quick studies of rooms and vignettes that I 'envy'. Spaces that exude comfort, warmth and coziness. Envious places where time stands still, and the luxury of just being oneself and relaxing is palpable. Inspired by English Cottages, Vanessa Bell and the Bloomsbury group, and all things cottage-y.
This will be an ongoing of studies created in the same size, and in the same painterly, quick way. I hope to continue this series into 2024.

Emma Ward is a professional Central Queensland artist who is inspired by the beauty of botanicals, the power of memory, and the stories of connection in a moment of time.
My practice revolves around connecting feelings with memories so I guess I identify as an Expressionistic Romantic or a Romantic Expressionist!. I enjoy creating meaning from the art of everyday alchemy - Flowers, Animals and Faces feature in my paintings. Spirit and energy is so important in creating a heartfelt painting. My studio is my haven - I paint amongst my flowers, surrounded by four daughters, my loving husband and two fuzzy art interns (my two curious cats).
