Emma Webster’s Favorite Things

“Most people know his iconic print, The Great Wave, but Hokusai’s landscapes of rural Japan are equally stunning.”

“He’s been an inspiration for as long as I can remember. He revolutionized landscape painting. He was way ahead of his time.”

“The particularities of these creatures and the breadth of the collection make this book endlessly interesting.”

“Peyton’s reverence for girlhood is as political as it is inspiring. I love the delicate brushwork Peyton uses to create these dreamy, intimate, but also energetically charged portraits.”

“This particular French vintage is one of my favorites. It’s light, well-balanced, fruit-forward. Perfect for the spring or summer but I drink it all year…”

“I’m a ski-bum at heart and love spending time in the mountains doing “research” for landscape painting.”

“Everyone I know has this kettle. The Brit in me takes tea at 3:30pm every day.”

“The studio has a collection of fun mugs, mostly art themed but also includes things I love like skiing.”

“My studio is littered with sketchbooks. They’re essential to my process and I love a well-made one that can stand up to the wear and tear of daily use.”

“This is my go-to jumpsuit. It’s super comfy and I wear it in the studio most days.”

“I use this blender every morning to make my morning smoothie. It’s simple and easy to clean.”

“Worldbuilding is an important aspect of my work, both on and off the canvas. I spend hours with my Oculus crafting creatures and landscapes.”

“I use projectors for my under-paintings in the studio all the time, this one is super versatile.”

“A dessert and a game all in one!”

“This digital sketchbook walks viewers through my process and features work in my show Rues and Leaves Themselves Alone, which opens at Petzel New York on April 30th.”
