"I have found a home within the genre of still life, and above all else I prefer to paint flowers. My petalled subjects are not the flawless shopping-mall variety. Instead, I seek out gnarled and blemished specimens - flowers that bear scars. My paintings are depictions of the broken, the damaged, and the imperfect." - Alex Emsley1
