I have just returned to work after a short Christmas break and the three paintings had been delivered to my workplace over a week ago. All three paintings look fantastic and are better than I expected. I am currently near completion of my new house and they will look great adorning the walls.

Hi Craig, thank you for your great review. I am so delighted you love your new paintings. Paintings are always much better in real life. If they look good on Artfinder they are guaranteed to be much more lovely when you receive them. Thank you again for buying my work. Emma

This painting delights and surprises me every time I come across it in the hallway next to our front door. I love the colours, the way the main subjects of the painting are around the edges and how that draws your eye around the canvas. I love the dramatic light and shadows, the mix of life and emptiness, cleanliness, fullness and colourful pomp that is England. Thank you EFC, i’m sure I will be back for more.

I am very pleased with the beautiful bird painting which I purchased from Emma! I love it. The colors are exactly as pictured, it was packed with great care and it arrived in perfect condition.
I am very happy to have ordered this lovely piece of artwork and will keep a search for Emma's work saved so I can check out what she has available in the future.

This artist captures the moment like no one else. Colour choice inspired, full of power and bite. Lovely chunky style. Tactile. Vibrant. I love all her work, bold and confident and highly evocative. Powerful.

I have bought many of Emma's paintings over the years. The vibrancy of her work coupled with her bold use of colour are second to none. Emma has a true gift capturing the unspolit beauty and tranquility of rural Wales as well as busy day to day urban enviroments.

“The Choice is Yours” by Emma Cownie
I was so excited to receive my picture which arrived very quickly. I think it was a day or two and the product was very well packed. The picture was so much better than the computer screen version. Emma is a fantastic artist and she captures the essence of contemporary realism. Every one of her pictures tells a story of our time. The characters are amazingly real, whether young or old and I almost felt I knew some of them personally! The urban surrounds remind me of a UK seaside town - I was told by the artist that the picture does in fact depict a place called Mumbles (don’t you just love that name!) a seaside town near Swansea. I pass by Emma’s pictures regularly just to browse - finance permitting I will be buying more of her work in the not too distant future!

Thank you Suzanne for such a special review. I just love it when collectors of my work have such a profound insight into my work, to the extent of coining terms for it . I will use "contemporary realism" to describe my people portraits from now on. Thank you for you feedback, it has been invaluable. So glad you love your new painting. It makes it so much easier for us artists to part with our work, knowing that our work goes to loving homes where it is so appreciated. Thank you! Emma
