Artist Bio
Emma is an Oxford-based artist, biologist and natural historian whose work focuses on trees within local landscapes. Working almost entirely in the field, her light instinctive sketches in charcoal and chalk explore the growth, form and character of trees as well as capturing the changes brought about by light, season and time.
​
Other strands of Emma's work include more detailed studies of natural objects and the use of text and maps to explore the language of nature and of place.
​
With her background in research and teaching, Emma regularly speaks about her work in lectures, symposia and other events within the University of Oxford. She also runs art and natural history projects and events in school, museum and community settings.
​
Emma exhibits her work regularly in Oxford in both solo and groups shows. In recent years her work has also been shown in London, Brighton and other locations around the UK. Emma frequently undertakes commissions for single 'tree portraits' or for larger projects.
