Emma Ferreira Gallery

Britweek Art Opening by Artist, photographer, painter, philanthropist and entrepreneur Emma Ferreira is a living example of knowing we have the key to her own destiny. Her paintings, photos and mixed-media works draw the viewer in and subtly convey messages of connection and harmony in the world. They exude passion and... beauty and invite the viewer to “Wake up! ... and live like you mean it!”

Ferreira thinks well beyond, “Carpe Diem,” in fact, she chooses to seize every minute of life on this planet and make it her own. Prolific at her core, her creative muse and artful hands are constantly producing new works that stretch the imagination and blur the limitations of traditional composition to create something truly original and inspiring.

Now, after only a brief time on the Los Angeles art scene, Ferreira has earned the respect of multiple art enthusiasts, including celebrities, and the media, leading to a waiting list for commissioned pieces.

Art is where Ferreira will make a difference, and her mark. To this extent, Ferreira has already undertaken a journey to build a monumental body of work that will exhibit in cities around the world to raise funds for various charitable foundations.

Classic Beauty includes new mixed media creations and never-before-seen images and photography pulled from Ferreira’s archives, all of which transcend various levels of perception and encapsulate an expression of “Classic Beauty.” This series suggests we raise the standard by which we individually, and collectively, make a choice to see beauty in life, in artwork, in people, and within ourselves.

Ferreira attributes the works of Peter Beard, Mark Rothko, and Lee Krasner as her greatest influences and inspiration. More than just the next “it” girl, Ferreira has the talent, staying power and heart for greatness. With a multitude of sold out shows, ownership of a lucrative gallery, and a well-heeled and celebrity client base under her belt, Ferreira has shown us all that an artist need not be starving to be true to his, or her, art.

Ferreira is an active member in the design and art community with annual participation in the Venice Art Walk and work featured at the CaBoom: Festival of Contemporary Design (2005), the Step Up Foundation (2005), and the Association of Interior Design (ASID) Los Angeles’ Greystone Estate Garden & Design Showcase (2007).
