엠마 던바(Emma Dunbar), 영국, 화가, 1961~현재
영국 화가 '엠마'의 작품에는 화려한 꽃다발이 가득합니다. 해변마을을 산책하면서 늘 보이는 주변의 풍경들을 작가의 시각으로 재배치하고, 산뜻한 색들을 강조하여 장식적인 그림을 완성합니다.
그녀의 작품은 카드와 엽서, 포스터로 제작되며, 화려한 스카프로 만들어지기도 한답니다.
About Her
Born in England in 1961, I graduated in 1984 with a BA(hons) in Fine Art Printmaking from West Surrey College of Art and Design.
Since then I have worked full time as an artist and exhibited throughout the UK. My paintings have been internationally reproduced as greetings cards, posters, limited edition etchings and even fabric designs.
What excites me about making pictures is trying to capture the essence of a place, or a thing, I am not worried about visual accuracy. I am attracted to vivid colours and the decorative qualities in everyday objects.
My daily dog walks, holidays and even trips to the supermarket provide inspiration. Landscapes, new seasons, sometimes just colour combinations, bright green grass against a blue grey sky or shapes of moored boats in a harbour, patterns on packaging all get me going. Fabulous bunches of flowers on a flattened table are frequently all I need and I am regularly purchasing new mugs for the next painting!
I work mainly on board in acrylic, occasionally incorporating collage with gold and silver leaf. My training as a printmaker is evident both in the use of blocks of flat colour and in the way I scratch through surfaces to reveal pre-laid colours underneath.
My influences come from travelling in India, Cornish holidays and the chaos of cats and children wandering onto wet paint. I have also drawn inspiration from the work of favourite artists, including Mary Fedden, Milton Avery and Daphne McClure.
