"The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head whiteout any other consideration."
- Frida Kahlo
THE ARTIST
My name is Emma Vo. I’m a Gothenburg based artist with a passion for colour, shape and the abstract.
With inspiration from nature, the sky, the infinity of space, music and the world I create abstract paintings where I let the colours convey my feelings. I pour, drip and throw paint on canvas to create magic between colours and create beautiful abstract shapes. Something that started as self-therapy during a challenging time in life became my hobby and today it is my passion.
Every painting is unique, often custom made, and created with emotions and passion. I hope my art will be more approachable and welcoming than perhaps more classic art can be.
Brows through my available paintings or get a custom made one with the colours you love.
I hope you will enjoy my art! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
Art by Vo obtains FA tax form.
