The Emu Committee

About the Painting

The Emu Committee captures the unforgettable charm of three emus standing together as if holding an important meeting.
I painted each one with expressive brushstrokes to highlight their quirky personalities — the thoughtful one, the skeptical one, and the one who clearly knows a secret.

Backstory

This trio never stood together in nature — the composition is created from three individual photos, each showing an emu with a distinct expression.
By bringing them together in one scene, I imagined a humorous moment where these characters gather to “discuss” the world around them.
Their contrasting moods create a lively and amusing dynamic.
