    Art Festival

    Delighted to say that I will be exhibiting my "urban minimal" work (and words) this October at Inkspot Art Centre, The Old Church, Newport Road/Clifton St, Cardiff as part of the MadeInRoath Festival http://madeinroath.com/ Sun 15 Oct - Sun 22 Oct My exhibition is “Gafnu Cymuned : Hollowed Community” and is inspired by my own community of Brynmill, in Swansea, which has been “hollowed out” by the unrelenting proliferation of student Houses of Multiple Occupation (HMOs). These sparse streetscapes focus on the summer months each year, when most of the students are absent, leaving this strange transient silence and sudden emptiness. There is an ominous aspect to each of these images and the intruding shadows hint at the transience of this peace.

    An "Emma Cownie" on Your Wall?

    An "Emma Cownie" on Your Wall?

    One thing I love is seeing my work on a collector's wall after they have bought something from me. It gives me a thrill seeing the creative combination of painting and it's new home. Here is one I sold last week, now living in Preston, England. It looks great! If you have an Emma Cownie on your wall I would so love to see it in it's new home!? Thank you.

    Malvern Theatres Christmas Exhibition

    Malvern Theatres Christmas Exhibition

    "Three female artists based in South Wales have taken over the exhibition space in Malvern Theatres for the next 7 weeks. They all derive their inspiration from the beautiful surroundings in that part of the Principality as well as further afield. What they have in common, as well as their location is superb technical skill and healthy sales record. People like to share their lives with original images of nature whether they inhabit urban or rural environments. Emma Cownie’s works have a very strong visual impact, derived from bold blocks of colours and an expressive palette that is widely used in modern art and pop art. Looking at Emma’s works you may get a sense of Paul Gauguin’s use of yellow and red, Robert Bevan’s blue green trees with purple, Henri Matisse’s simplification and exaggeration of form and Andre Derain’s bold definition of shape within the landscape. However, her works are not derivative but strongly original."
