Emma Loizides creates playful, romanticised cityscapes that draw inspiration from her love of Americana, urban life, and the quiet charm of early mornings. Her fascination began in childhood, sparked by films like Home Alone and Pretty Woman, where city streets lit up with possibility and drama. That early spark grew into a passion for travel, architecture, and capturing fleeting moments through sketching, photography, and eventually, oil painting.

Emma’s route into art was unconventional — working in banking while studying painting at the weekends — but her creative instincts always pulled her toward storytelling through colour and texture. From palm-lined boulevards and pastel diners to neon-tipped rooftops and empty London streets at dawn, her work captures a mood of gentle nostalgia and escapism.

Painting with oils and adding accents of pastel neon, Emma’s textured surfaces bring quirky architecture and glowing skies to life. Her scenes are often people-free, creating a moment of stillness amidst urban chaos. Both joyful and contemplative, her work invites viewers to pause, smile, and dream.
