Testimonials

"This was my 2nd semester of having Eric as a teacher, and once again, I have not been disappointed. His class was one to look forward to. Eric is very knowledgeable, I will miss having his class."

Mathilde Brault ( Spring 2022 )

"Eric is an incredible teacher who is very persistent on teaching fundamentals and his live drawing is incredibly informative and educational. Simple, informative steps and constant reminders on why artists choose to use the tools they do. He even gave book and study recommendations. He's a talented teacher and I'd recommend him to anyone."
