Emily Dwan

Denver, Colorado

Emily Dwan creates in two distinct mediums. First, she uses acrylics on stretched canvas to craft her abstract landscapes that aim to capture the essence of a moment rather than focusing on realism. Emily uses a modern approach to Impressionism that she calls “Electro Impressionism." Bright colors are enhanced and brush strokes are distorted to emit happiness and positivity.In addition, Emily uses stained glass mosaic over cradled wood canvas or found objects such as cellos, guitars, skis, etc to bring an exciting new life to these once ordinary objects. Subject matter has a wide range from botanical to geometric.
