I am so pleased to showcase in April's Artist Watch at Escape Into Life the marvelous work of printmaker Martha Ensign Johnson. The images are part of Martha's ongoing series Erasure, which speaks profoundly to the effects of environmental destruction.
A resident of Black Mountain, North Carolina, Martha is highly skilled in printmaking techniques, including etching, spit bite aquatint, relief printing (woodcuts), and chine colle. The recipient of many honors and awards, Martha has exhibited widely across the United States and abroad.
Today, my Artist Watch column includes seven images from the Erasure series, Martha's Artist Statement about the series, and biographical information. In addition, you'll find Martha's social media and links to current and upcoming exhibitions.
