Another print from the four elements of air, earth, fire and water. Martell, who lives on an island in the San Juans, uses images that come to her from direct observation from her daily life and from the media she believes is part of the landscape in which we exist. I rely on the intrusion of visual cross-referencing. I am always collecting images from newspapers, magazines and books, or making notes and quick sketches from TV or out the car window.
