This oil painting tells the tale of an older Eve, depicted here with her dog (no Adam). She's still contemplating eating that apple of knowledge. This is a portrait of real woman, one who doesn't care what anyone else thinks. She presents herself how she feels at any given time, it was her idea to expose one breast and sit with her legs apart. I love that old sofa and her pointed boots. She is a hermit and lives alone, high up in the snowy mountains of Spain. She was my friend for years, though it was always a precarious relationship and now she is happier no longer speaking to me – in true hermit style! This painting is about the comfort of decayed glamour, the beauty is still present, though a little faded now. Perhaps this painting can only be truly grasped by someone who has lived a few unintended interesting years themselves? This painting comes rolled in a tube, off the stretcher because it's quite big.

Emma Plunkett is a life long practising artist, known for her unique and expressive style. Her art often combines clean and vibrant fauvist colours and intricate pointillist details to create captivating and original compositions. From 1995 – 2020, Emma worked intensively as a VJ (video projection artist) under the name Miss Plunkett. Emma is of 100% Irish decent, born and educated in London. She has a degree in Fine Art from the University of East London. Throughout the 1990's and early 2000's, Emma put on events, exhibited her art and performed her live video mixing on the London club scene. In 2002, after short creative stints in Barcelona, Ibiza and then Amsterdam, Emma continued her journey south to the province of Granada, in the south of Spain. She continued to video project at festivals and party's, collaborating on a mobile dance space in an 11m dome, where she also created decor, installations. She exhibited her art on the Costa Tropical, Granada, Costa del Sol and in the local community of Órgiva. Emma ran the local art group, where she was putting on large group exhibitions in historically important buildings. Emma moved to Barcelona in 2020, where she now lives and works – concentrating on stoneware sculpture, video and oil painting. Emma has a life-long unwavering devotion to art. The underlying sentiment in Emma's artwork is about the female experience from a woman's perspective. Her work is ever evolving as she experiments and explores ways to portray the female body in a manner which is both genuine and empowering. Other themes include friendship, surrealist forms, painting views that she loves, florals, abstracts and single items from her life such as her bed, a croissant or even just a cup of coffee.
