Emily's own commedia dell'arte troupe!

By the way, Emily points out that if you have a left hand, then you are, technically, left-handed.

Black Stockings

Black Stockings, 2010, oil on canvas, 20" x 16"  $900

It could be perfectly innocent, but there's something a bit sinister going on here.

The Family

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

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.
