Emma Staples
Born in Auckland, New Zealand in 2007 and later moving to Taupo at the age of 10, my passion for art has always been in my life.
From a young age, I spent countless hours painting and drawing, but it was after the sudden passing of my artistic grandmother in 2021 and the inheritance of her easel and paints that truly ignited my artistic journey.
I picked up her paint brush, and to this day haven’t put a brush down.
Living in Rural Taupo I am surrounded by constant inspiration, Taupo is a holiday destination where we all enjoy the adventurous outdoors and stunning landscapes.
My paintings are a result of this inspiration, and I want people to leave my work understanding the blend between art being technically precise yet a contemporary feeling.
