Waterfall III

 I create watercolor and acrylic paintings, specializing in landscapes, plants, and abstractions based on natural patterns and forms.  Many paintings are inspired by my experiences and impressions traveling in the West and Midwest.  Others spring directly from my imagination, and still others find their inception in specific materials, techniques, or compositional approaches.  I also enjoy creating "improvisations" which develop through a dialogue between my ideas and the whims of the medium.  It is my hope that these works will give the viewer a fresh look at some of the commonplaces which surround us, a moment of visual delight, and an increased appreciation of the inherent structure and beauty of the natural world.

If you would like to receive an email when there are significant new additions to the paintings on the website, or you'd like to hear when I have a show or Art Festival, please send me an email ("Contact Emily Porter") and I'll put you on my mailing list.  You can "unsubscribe" at any time just by sending me another email.
