Emma Overman


Emma Overman is an Indianapolis painter who all of you should know about. She has a gallery at the Harrison Center for the Arts at 16th and Delaware. The first Friday of every month, her gallery, along with dozens of other galleries are open to the public for an event called First Friday. If you've never heard of First Friday, you should really check it out. There's some great artists there, but Emma is by far my favorite one. You should really check out more of her work. It's cute but at the same time slightly creepy. My favorite piece by here is "Invisible Dan and the Midnight Snack" in which, Invisible Dan, a floating top hat and a pair of white, gloves holds a try of treats. I love the colors and the shape of the painting. Its not that often that you see an artist using an oval shaped frame, especially one with such an antique look with such an interesting art style.
