Early Artistic Steps

For the first few years, Emily used a special art name, or pseudonym, called Cobz. She was well-known for her urban figurative line art. This style of art shows things that look like real objects or people. She created these pieces with Lisa Ridgers.

How Emily Finds Inspiration

Emily Sarah uses her abstract art to show the world around her. Abstract art does not try to show things exactly as they look. Instead, it uses shapes, colors, and textures to create a feeling or idea. Emily finds ideas from many places. She gets inspiration from aerial photos, which are pictures taken from above. The beautiful Sussex Coast and the city of Edinburgh also inspire her. She tries to capture the unique textures and colors she sees in her artworks.

Materials and Techniques

Emily mainly works with acrylic paints. She also uses spray paints as her main mediums, which are the materials an artist uses. She combines these with other tools like charcoal and pastels. Most of her art is done on large canvases. Sometimes, she also creates art on paper or even on buildings. These large pieces on buildings are called murals. Emily shares a lot of her work on a special online platform called WESCOVER.
