Erica finds joy making art with her hands, whether with a pen, brush, fingers or a keyboard. She believes ALL have the divine spark of creation within. Being brought up in an unorthodox yet loving household enabled her to observe people, events and things in unusual ways. First falling in love with words, then drawing then numbers, all symbols pointing us along our mystical journey through life. As an artist, her favorite mediums are watercolor, charcoal and textured mixed media. Her art garage is based in Columbia, South Carolina where she produces most of her work. She and her husband also reside in West Palm Beach, Florida, where she has had numerous exhibits and one gallery. Her watercolor series include Palm Beach Memories, Travel the World, Asheville Aura, The Muses, and her abstract Elegant Universe. In her textured series, she loves working acrylics into the "wets" such as tile mix, plumber's joint compound and mod podge. Many of her pieces are based on her direct, keen observation of places, objects and people dear to her heart.
