✶
Emeline (b. New Orleans, LA) is a Philadelphia-based artist with a BFA from Temple University's Tyler School of Art. Her large-scale acrylic paintings serve as a meditative exploration of self. Inspired by life experiences and personal narratives, her work often features nature-inspired imagery and delicious color palettes. While her goal is personal exploration, Emeline hopes that viewers can find their own connections within her art, whether it's through the juicy colors, abstracted imagery, or the emotional resonance it evokes. Her intuitive approach to painting allows for unexpected and organic compositions, reflecting the unique and individual nature of each piece and experience. Emeline's work explores themes of nostalgia and memory, capturing the delicate balance between motion and stillness inherent in fleeting moments.
