Modern Times, 2011, oil on canvas, 20" x 16"
An unsettling image for unsettling times.
This is one of a handful of surreal images Emily started a while ago, images that she refers to as Postcards from Saturn.
UPDATE: This painting was selected for the Jamestown Art Center's 2012 show "Statewide," a juried show of works by Rhode Island RISD alumni.

The Embrace
They embrace tenderly and a little wearily, as if having spent an entire night dancing.

The Farce
The story is all in the hands.

This painting is based on a much earlier illustration that was commissioned by The New Yorker many years ago. Sadly, they never published it, in spite of sending a private courier all the way from NYC to get the painting after they had lost the photo transparency.
