Emily Patrick grew up on a farm in Kent and studied Architecture at Cambridge University. Since 1984 she has had ten solo exhibitions in London. Her 2005 and 2007 exhibitions were both recommended in Critic's Choice in the Financial Times and Top five galleries / The best of the Arts in The Times.

In 2007, Jackie Wullschlager of The Financial Times wrote “this distinctive figurative painter [is] a 21st-century intimiste who combines intense technical accomplishment - she works on birch ply with gesso, using tempera for meditative, translucent effects and oil for fluid fast strokes - with a vibrant expressiveness and an airy feel for light and colour. Most compelling is the sense of interiority, half melancholy, half rapturous, in the still lifes of flowers, set against mirrors or dark furniture and the sense of nature condensed yet uncontrollable, bursting to the picture's edges, in the landscape close-ups.”
