Artist Profile | Illustration

Emma Elise Petterson

Emma Petterson is a self-taught watercolourist from Sydney Australia. She paints out of her home studio where she loves exploring colours, granulation, and a wide range of subject matter.  She first started using watercolours to lessen feelings of anxiety. She finds the unpredictable nature of watercolours to be therapeutic as it reflects the uncontrollable world around us. Her art is a way to express peace, joy, and her vibrant spirit. A principle theme in her art is Australian native botanicals. She loves painting interiors and parts of the home that hold so many memories and special moments for people. She finds inspiration from personal treasures, objects, nature and delicious sweet treats! love Emma x  CV: November 2021: Art Directory Australia online gallery  February  2022:  Emerging artist group exhibition at the Toowoomba gallery March 2022: Solo exhibition at SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS ARTISANS COLLECTIVE  Dates TBA: - Table cloth collection with Mrs Tablescapes (release date tbc)  - Exclusive prints with The Crafted Prints (in the works)
