Emma Cownie

Born in Hereford, educated in Whitely Bay, Gloucester, Cardiff and London, I am a professional contemporary artist. I have lived in Donegal, Derry and Swansea (not necessarily in that order). My work focuses on place in the landscape and their historical context. I also explore how light can focus attention on fleeting moments. By documenting the shadows cast in bright sunshine or by night time street lamps, I seek to catch a moment. I have found myself drawn to and influenced by painters who have a special relationship with colour and light; such as American realists Edward Hopper, Rockwell Kent, Fairfield Porter and British painter David Hockney. I am also drawn to the bold colours and simplified forms of Modern American painters such as Lois Dodd, Jessica Brilli and Mitchel Johnson.
