Emma Macleod is a traditional realist artist working in oil, pastel, and watercolor. She specializes in pet portraits, portraits, and landscapes, with an emphasis on likeness, expression, and atmosphere. She is inspired by personalities, meaningful memories, and the quiet moments that make a place—or a face—feel familiar.

Each piece is created by hand from your reference photos and developed with careful attention to detail, values, and color. She accepts a limited number of commissions at a time to ensure each artwork receives the time and care it deserves.

To inquire about a custom piece, please submit the inquiry form and she will be in touch.
