Emma McGowan

Brief biography

I’m a full time artist and mother of two young daughters, living and working by the English seaside. I was born in London and studied the history of art in Edinburgh before moving to Brighton where I can now be found every day in my tiny garden studio making art for greetings cards, textiles, stationery, newspapers and magazines. I find my inspiration in flea markets and art galleries, vintage fashion and interiors magazines, and of course in nature. All my work is drawn by hand, printed or painted, and I thrive on creative collaboration with my clients to develop the perfect artwork for their products.
