Emma Prill is a visual artist who mostly works with paint, mixed media and textile and teaches young people the joy of colour and art. She is based in Omokoroa, Tauranga, New Zealand. Emma and I have been friends since 4th form where we relished Grant Thompson’s Art sessions at Tauranga Girls’ College. I adore her use of colour, and feel the freedom she communicates with her creative instruments symbolise her openness, warmth, femininity and joy. Here is firstly some of her current work – her range of handcrafted gift cards and sculptured canvas gardens. What then follows are images of 2013 School Holiday Art Classes, held in Omokoroa, Tauranga, for children. You can find her: https://www.facebook.com/emmaprill
