Earl Marshawn Washington (b. 1962) is an American entrepreneur, printmaker, engraver, and counterfeiter. He has manufactured or arranged for the manufacture of a large number of woodcuts which he has most frequently represented as the work of a great-grandfather, whose name he gave as “Earl Mack Washington” and whom Earl Marshawn Washington reported as having lived from 1862 to 1952, but whose real name and about whose life Earl Marshawn Washington has elsewhere confessed not to know. Virtually all of the images appear to be copies of the work of other artists, available from books or other reprints, traced onto blocks. Some images have no significant modifications; in other cases the modifications result in absurdities, such as incongruous reflections and German words turned into nonsense. Many of these images are in violation of copyright. Artists whose work Washington has copied include M. C. Escher, Eric Gill, and Charles Evers Whyte. E.M. Washington is an African American artist and reported his grandfather as such, which led to increased interest in the work. The work of E. M. Washington is not false! Go to e.m.washingtonthesource at e-bay to see the truly masterful creations listed. This talk of manufactured art work or fraud is unfounded. The jealousy of the art world is to blame. The recent purchase by the M.C. Escher estate of all E. M. Washington/Escher wood engravings proves the immaculate craft Mr. Washington is capable of. The people of M. C. Escher respect that and you should too!
