Description: A mystical Oil Painting by Emma Turpin, "BLUE BRIDE".
Emma Turpin was born in 1964. She studied at Hastings College of Art and the Slade where she received her MA. Emma's paintings are colourful and full of symbolism and mystery. Her influences are varied and range from early Christian and Muslim iconography to the work of Balthus and more recently Paula Rego. She is also inspired by Traditional British crafts and sees inspiration in historical buildings, interiors, and gardens and also draws on the tradition of British folklore, and the craftsmanship involved. Her unique style has a romantic and antique essence to it. Emma has had numerous exhibitions and one man shows in Europe as well as the UK.
Painting is signed & framed.
Dimensions: Painting: 16cm x 21cm (6" x 8")
Additional Information: Emma says of her work: "I have tried to create a balance between the process of painting and the image, keeping the two in a state of flux. In this way I hope there is space enough between the two for the unexpected and the uncertain."
Emma Turpin's two brothers are both artists as are her parents who live in Spain. The strong colours of the Mediterannean are reflected in her landscapes.
