Emily Blackwell
Who am I?
An artist and designer based in Washington, D.C. The work moves between dense, saturated color pieces and spare ink drawings, and keeps returning to the same few subjects: appetite, the body, animals that know more than they let on, and the buildings around her.

Ink and Marker
Color work in a surreal, slightly grotesque register: appetite, anxiety, and the creatures that live in both.
