art emma webster petzel gallery show

Emma Webster is preparing her first solo exhibition with Petzel gallery, opening April 30, featuring paintings of domestic animals like horses, cows, and dogs. The Los Angeles-based artist uses a multi-step process: building physical maquettes from clay and wire, 3D-scanning them, rendering digital dioramas in Blender, and then painting from those digital references. For the first time, she will also project the digital diorama in the gallery's entryway for viewers to interact with in real time.
