Emma is a London-based illustrator and printmaker who draws inspiration from the magic of nature through careful observation.

- Focus:
- Botanical collagraphs using recycled materials
My collagraph prints are created with sustainability in mind. I use recycled tetrapak cartons for printing plates, meticulously transforming waste into beautiful artwork. I use sustainable materials from UK-based suppliers who share my ethos. I prioritise local supplies to reduce my carbon footprint. I use FSC-certified papers and non-toxic inks. My packaging is recycled, reusable, or biodegradable. I regularly review my practices to ensure environmental responsibility.
