Renowned artist, Mark Demsteader (of Manchester) has created a collection of portraits of Emma Watson (one of his biggest fans) which can be seen at the Panter & Hall Gallery on Bury Street in London. The exhibit holds 34 portraits of Emma in different mediums – charcoal and gouache drawings, ink paintings and oils.

Mark said of the “EMMA” collection, “It has been a wonderful privilege to work with Emma on these images. The idea behind them is to make a collection to celebrate Emma’s birthday. I wanted to capture a moment in time, and by making each piece a quick snapshot, I hope to capture Emma as she reaches 21. In some way I hope these works celebrate Emma in what she has achieved already, and in all the many possibilities to come.”

Emma and Mark agreed that 10% of all sale proceeds and one of the pieces will be donated to Emma’s charity of choice, CAMFED International, a charity which supports the education of girls and economic empowerment of young women in Africa.

Of the agreement, Emma said, “I am really excited that Mark said he would support CAMFED International with this exhibition, too. They are a great charity doing an amazing job educating girls in Africa.”
