Watercolour artwork by Emma Bradley, inspired by travels on the British waterways

Life on the canal in watercolour

Welcome! A little about myself - I paint mainly in watercolour whilst living and traveling the English waterways on my narrowboat. I use the stunning and varied nature and landscape around me as inspiration for my work.

As I continuously cruise the waterways, I join the boating community at floating markets and boating festivals showcasing my gallery from the boat.
