“I had been searching for a unique painting that was unmistakenly Dublin to send off to London with a friend who was re-locating. I wasn’t quite sure what it would look like until I came across a blue canal scene by Emily which was just perfect. Dealing with Emily was a joy, painting was delivered within 48 hours and beautifully presented, can’t recommend enough!”
review on Google
“I saw paintings by Emily on LinkedIn and I thought when I was in the area I would call to see her artwork. I was truly in awe and ended up buying 2 pictures from her. The images online don’t do her work justice and the quality of paint and detailing was just beautiful. She has are real love and passion for art and each picture has its own story.”
