If Eric were forced to categorize his illustration style, it would be with an oxymoron: surreal realism. His illustrations invite the viewer into another world, one that looks like ours, but isn’t quite the same. Eric's dramatic sense of lighting and color lend his paintings a feeling of serenity, often with a degree of mystery beneath the surface. He has been published many times in Spectrum: The Best in Contemporary Fantastic Art, and he has been honored on several occasions with acceptance into shows at the Society of Illustrators. Eric's talent has also been recognized by Blue Cube, and he was presented with "Best in Show" two years running in the Art of Illustration competition.

Recent clients include Simon & Schuster, Tor Books, Harcourt Publishers, Scholastic, the Washington National Opera, Realms of Fantasy and more. Eric is still in the early phase of his career, but keep an eye out – you'll be seeing a lot of him at your neighborhood bookstore.
