Emily Winfield Martin (The Black Apple) does amazing paintings, and we're excited to have a few of them as prints.
This print is from her wonderful show "Lost on the Midway" that was in the Land Gallery in 2010. The series, which depicts an imaginary carnival was inspired by a line from a Tom Waits song, it is a world filled with oddities, eerie-green skies, and gentle loveliness.
Emily says about this print, "This little lass is a bit more...vivacious than the usual Figi Mermaid sideshow attraction."
Expertly printed with an 11-ink fade-resistant colour process on a smooth, enhanced archival matte paper creating rich blacks and vibrant colours by the Land Gallery in Portland, Oregon.
This portrait series is a touching, haunting look in to the soul of its subject.
