Hi, I’m Emma Korosei, an artist based in Anchorage, Alaska. I have a B.A. in Studio Art from Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, and do commissions ranging from pet portraits to landscapes. Please go to my new website, https://artbyemmak.com/, to contact me and see my most recent works and updates.
Statement
Most of my work is based in observation from my immediate surroundings. I draw living things such as plants, people, and animals, as well as landscapes. For me, art is a way of recording, noticing, and appreciating what I see around me, and reacting to different subjects in the way I represent them through dry and wet media.
It is difficult in our busy lives, especially with screens, to notice our surroundings and our role within them. The urge to record our experiences with photos and videos distracts us (me included) from the present. When I draw or paint from my surroundings, I can pause and appreciate details of ordinary objects, scenes, or circumstances.
