The Family

The Family, 2010, oil on canvas, 20" x 16"  $900

Not a flattering portrait; serene, tragic, perhaps inevitable.

What makes you look twice, the lady with her inverted twin or the cross-dressing robot?

Perishables and Tangibles

Perishables and Tangibles, 2009, oil on canvas, 20" x 16"  $900

The flying ephemera is the final touch in a painting that has it all:  food, pets, draperies, and headlessness.

The Unspeakable Space Between Us

The Unspeakable Space Between Us, 2009, oil on canvas, 20" x 16"  $900

In this current series of 20x16 paintings (which started with Stage of Indecision), Emily has been giving her characters a little more living space.  Here the characters seem to have drifted apart in response, dimly aware of their estrangement.

Another take on the pas de deux theme (see here for more on this theme).  This view is a bit more "revealing."

Blind Date

The way to a man's heart . . . As in the painting below, there is the desire to connect, yet the fear of intimacy.
