Eric has always been interested in the arts ever since he can remember. He would doodle all the time in school and get in trouble for it often. He always knew he would be an artist. It was the only thing he could confidently see a future in. Eric mainly studied illustration and painting throughout high school with the addition of taking a few ceramics classes. His plan was to eventually become an illustrator, but after being thrown into real illustration classes it became clear that it wasn't a good fit. Eric switched to ceramics in his sophomore year of college. He has been making pots for about 7 years now. He graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2019 with a Bachelors in Fine arts for Ceramics. He moved up to Rutland, Vermont immediately after, now residing in Bridgewater Vermont. He is currently working as a studio manager as well as continuing to produce his own work.
