my stray thoughts, reconstructed

Emma K. Turner


In my heart there’s a girl who forgot she grew up.

About me.

I’m a twenty-year-old artist from Tennessee who puts the magical, interesting and uncomfortable things I see in daily life on the canvas. 

My favorite themes are childhood, nostalgia, and longing. I seek to incorporate these ideas into my work, ranging from portraiture to landscape art.  I am constantly fascinated by how humans are fundamentally the same creatures through thousands of years of civilization and try to show that in my work. 
I work primarily in oil. Other mediums include watercolor, charcoal, and pen & ink.
