From review: "It's an imaginative approach to the centuries-old genre of landscape, one that the artist shares with other Fauvist-inspired contemporary painters, including Shara Hughes and Matthew Wong. But the strange, engulfing sense of depth in Webster's luscious canvases also hints at the 3-D seduction of virtual-reality adventures..." - ^ Pagel, David.

From review: "Emma Webster's paintings are grand affairs: sweeping landscapes filled with forests and mountains and rivers and lakes, some bathed in golden light and others shrouded in shadows so deep you shudder." - ^ Malone, Tyler.

From review: "Yet the postlapsarian world of Webster's pastoral dreamscapes somehow retains an Edenic sublimity through its foregrounded artificiality—these locales, while uncannily familiar, are like no place on earth, each so perfect a model of a model of some heavenly dwellings." - ^ "Emma Webster - 3 Artworks, Bio & Shows on Artsy".
