Emma Fitzpatrick

Emma Fitzpatrick is an award winning Irish artist based in Belfast creating evocative landscapes both real and imagined. Nature is a huge inspiration for her as she endeavours to capture the essence of our rugged landscape primarily through the use of palette knives. Emma builds her work up in layers over time using mixed media and oil paints until the painting feels alive

As a graduate of textile design from the National College of Art and Design Dublin, touch is as important as the visual to Emma as she uses her passion for the tactile to intuitively play with the elements of texture, colour and space within her work

Emma is best known for large-scale, highly textured landscape and nature paintings that break away from traditional processes, often taking the canvas off of the easel and using unconventional materials and techniques

‘My inspiration emerges from natural elements; from the abundance of nature. I want the viewer to feel the powerful energy of nature, to feel a sense of wellbeing and connection to all that is’

Emma travelled extensively before settling in Belfast as a teacher of Art & Design following her PGCE in Art and Design. She currently paints from her home studio and her works are held in private collections locally and internationally including Ireland, England, Wales, Holland and America
