About Emma Higgins
Basically, for me , it’s all about the colour.
From an early age colour peaked my attention, the brighter the better. I noticed how much happier I was to be painting in colours with paint and pastels as opposed to in pencil.
I get all my inspiration from the colour I see all around me, It can be in nature or in man-made objects. Either way, if its colourful , it just grabs my attention, I see colour before I see anything else. I am immediately drawn to it and it fills me with joy. I see a colour combination I love and It makes want to recreate it .
My vision is to create abstract art, drawing inspiration from my life experience that inspires joy in the viewer and brings life to contemporary interior or family spaces. I have developed a keen interest in how colour can play an important role in our daily lives. My mission is to spread the joy of colour where I can.
Live Life In Colour !

Coming at you with a daily dose of colour 🤣 heres #botanicstroll – original painting available from my latest collection – loving the sunshine this morning – long may it last 🙂 #florals #herecomesthesun #colourful #originalart
Are you looking to brighten up your life with an original painting ? I just love original paintings and the value they can add to your home ! I make it a point to buy off people in my creative community every year if I can – original art can be expensive but worth every penny in my opinion ! I’m loving building a collection ( even if it’s still rather small ! ) – if I had an unlimited budget I can imagine that I would run out of walls !!! Anyway , like most artists I do payment plans for originals to make sure you get the one you want without the stress of having to pay for it all in one go ! DM me for more details if you’ve got the perfect spot and are looking to invest in a piece , if you’re nearby I can bring some pieces over to check sizes etc #shoporiginal #colourful #originalart #thesoftday #
