Emma Rushton is a self taught Artist residing on the Northern Beaches of Sydney.

Using nature as her inspiration Emma develops a colour palette to establish the beginnings of a work, letting the process develop into more textural forms.

Her work combines these elements with craft and textiles to produce paintings that are a hybrid between tapestry and collages of organic patterns. Following this intuitive process an emphasis is placed on the texture and layering within her work, developing a balance between a visually captivating piece and a highly tactile sensation within.
