Hear What Others Say...
"When Emma offered to gift me one of her stunning paintings, I felt a mix of intimidation and deep honor. My eclectic style doesn't always align with how my home is presented, and I worried that her beautiful work might go unnoticed in my chaotic space. Bags have always been my weakness—especially those that seem to carry a personality of their own. For me, self-expression is about painting your life, using your body and existence as a living canvas. So when Emma extended this generous offer, the idea of wearing her art resonated more deeply with me than simply hanging it on a wall. I asked her if we could bring her painting to life in a different way—by creating a one-of-a-kind upcycled bag that I could showcase in my 'life gallery.' What we created together is a piece of living art that I will cherish forever. It's more than just a bag, it's a special experience and a testament to the power of collaboration and creativity." - Melanie Dale, @letsgetlayered
“The colour, movement and energy Emma creates in her pieces are mind blowing. Every time I look at the amazing piece that hangs on my wall I find a new detail, a new colour and a new feeling. Thank you Emma!” - Elle Dawe, Australian Actor
"Emma's art is pure sunshine! I purchased a pair of paintings to celebrate a big moment happening in my life. They hang proudly in my office and add so much joy to my daily routines. Art is an investment in your soul. And Emma's art is joyful." - Sarah Megginson, Writer, Editor, Finance Expert
“The workshop I attended was so much fun. Thank you for accommodating me and my Auslan Interpreter Olivia. The workshop was so inclusive and accessible. I really appreciate it so much.”
"I started with a couple of pieces and every time someone came over they always commented on how happy and colourful my Emma Darrouzet paintings were and asked me about them. Since those first few pieces, I now have 9 beautiful Emma Darrouzet pieces in my home - all bringing me so much joy and brightness. I love how unique and affordable the pieces are."
"A very big thank you for today. It was a blast. It is attainable art, meaning I can’t draw in any way yet l love coloured busy vibrant art that puts such a vibe into my unit!! You make this possible through your step by step modelling. It’s also so good to make the learning visible by having your amazing works on display to get ideas. It was a truely great day and can’t wait to pick up my artwork."
"Everyone absolutely must do a workshop with Emma! We had a beautiful bubble that was a safe space for open conversation about any & every topic, experimental creativity, time to process ideas and a way to find & express the voice inside. Emma is a beacon. Someone to look to for authentically sharing with us her knowledge and experiences and to shine a rainbow light where there may be darkness. I am grateful to have discovered this beautiful human and I can’t wait to come back and do another workshop with Emma!"
"I have attended two of Emma’s workshops. Loved them both. Emma made every process look so easy! I loved her balance of colours and not worrying about “if it’s not perfect”, as it all comes together in the final stages. I have since created a large canvas for our home and some small ones for gifts. Totally addicted and find it’s a lovely way to wind down and just relax! Emma’s workshops are amazing and worth so much more! Such a generous and beautiful human."
"I've attended several of Emma's workshops, and I'm always amazed by what I manage to create every time. Emma creates a fun and supportive atmosphere. She is super chill as she walks you through each step of the process leaving you with a piece you can proudly hang on your wall at home. Her workshops aren't like regular paint and sips, they feel more like a mini retreat where you can just escape for the day. The food, music and drinks add to the fun. You just feel so spoilt when you're there, she thinks of everything! It's a truly immersive, educational and inspiring experience. Highly recommend."
"My experience was delightful. I found it really difficult to find art that was a conversation starter without looking like everyone else’s prints from Kmart or similar. I instantly fell in love with Emma’s style. Its bright, ballistic and wonderfully different."
"Hi Emma, I just wanted to say a big thank you again for Saturdays neon class.
You made the day so easy to participate in which is something that I was exceptionally grateful for."
"Hi Emma, Thank you so much for the workshop yesterday, I had a fabulous time making my art piece."
