About The Artwork
My painting style is definitely flirting with realism at the moment - observing keenly and stretching myself in the process. As I mature as an artist, once in a while, I think it's good to go back to my roots, to practice mastering my craft. It was challenging enough to do any type of justice to such a beautiful flower, so I painted it without artificiality. From a distance, it looks like a photo. From close up, you get to see the abstract elements that went into making this painting. The oil paint was slowly applied, layering up from dark to light, to create the form of the flower. It is an American prairie wildflower AKA the Golden Columbine, from the Buttercup family. When you see the flower from the side, it has spectacularly long (42 – 65 mm) nectar spurs. Pollinators, like the hummingbird and hawk moth, have coevolved alongside this bloom, to be one of the few creatures able to delve deep enough into the spurs - ensuring successful distribution of the pollen!

Emma is a London born and educated artist, digital video maker and designer – her artwork straddles stoneware sculpture, cyanotype printing, painting (watercolour, oil and acrylic), illustration, photography, fabric art, animation and vector design. Emma's art is highly personal, her subjects include her friends (animal as well as human), places she’s visited, experiences and things that capture her imagination. Her artwork is uncontrived and free from trying to be anything other than what it is. "At the core of Emma Plunkett's work is the female. Not feminine or politicised. Whether it be a disappearing view of trees into the Spanish horizon, a slithering viscous ceramic or a candid nude. It is always individual and genuine. This we must celebrate”. Gareth Lister - Artist & Curator
