Cotswolds artist, Emma Clarke, produces work which is strongly influenced by her pattern-making, design and textile training. The results are vibrant, graphic and fresh compositions.
Her smaller mixed media works - like this series of Pebbles - include inks, paint and stitching and feature wonderful colour combinations.
She then frames them, perfectly, in good quality painted wooden frames that she makes and finishes herself.
ABOUT EMMA CLARKE
Emma grew up in Somerset and studied art from an early age which progressed into completing a degree in Textile Design & Surface Pattern.
Her work is very much influenced by her textile and pattern-making training and uses a variety of media to produce stylised and quirky paintings and prints.
Living in the Cotswolds gives her a wealth of inspiration, such as the patchwork landscape, grasses, wildflowers, rivers and streams. her artworks start with sketching on location and then reworking again and again to produce an interpretation. It is often one simple idea or view that is sketched and painted several times - in different ways and using different media - to give the subject its final form.
