Emma Holt is willing to accept commissions
I have been drawing for many years, focusing primarily on buildings and still life. My work explores structure, light/shadows, and the quiet details of everyday spaces and objects, focusing on the character that often goes unnoticed.
Working through close observation, I aim to create drawings that feel considered and unhurried, allowing the subject to reveal itself over time. Drawing in pen suits my approach, encouraging patience, precision, and a strong engagement with line. I enjoy spending time understanding a subject before committing it to paper, building depth and atmosphere through detail and repetition.
My practice is rooted in looking closely and responding thoughtfully, with an emphasis on craftsmanship and the subtle presence of familiar environments.
