amy earles has some lovely new work at double punch in a group show called 'we have a remedy' with another favorite, betsy walton. what i love most about her work is the strange images she invokes, often seemingly rooted in the nostalgic effect of fairy tales coupled with elements of the dark and ghostly. painted with gouache, her new work has the same delicate approach as her hinged paper dolls available to cut up and play with on her etsy shop, yet each read as a contained universe within the image.
