Introduction
I love what I do and my standards are high and I'm always striving to present things with a new perspective. It's important to keep the work as original as possible whether it is an Illustration, portrait, or logo - this is for both digital or tradition. With portrait work I get the exact likeness of the subject. When I draw or paint someone I like to meet the person I'm drawing so that I can get their personality to come through the artwork. When creating logos I listen carefully to what the client wants and expects. This is the one piece of art that is their first impression when meeting with a client. A logo captures the mood and feel of a company. My approach is to think out to the box. This creates a unique, personal and professional look for the client. My skills in Photoshop are expert and having an illustration background gives me an advantage over the competitors. Especially, since I have a strong grasp of understanding the human anatomy as taught from the Academy of Art. Being a portrait artist also gives me another upper hand in photo retouching. No matter the job I put my all into my work as if it was my own. This ensures the client will walk away a happy customer. I love to create and it makes me feel good when what I can do can put a smile on someones face.

Eric saved some family portraits from being a disaster. I didnt have a chance to retake the portraits because theyre from out of town. There were harsh shadows on their faces that looked awful. Eric was able to clean it up and made the photos look almost perfect. He did it very promptly and at a very reasonable cost. I definitely recommend him for any Photoshop work you need done.

I found Eric through Google and Thumbtack. A couple kids my wife and I help raise there Mother passed away recently. I wanted to do a portrait or sketch of the kids with there Mom. Eric walked me through the process and let me know what he could do for me. I hired him right away and he was so patient with me and thoughtful as well. I would recommend Eric to anyone he goes above and beyond the normal scope. Such a great human. Five stars all day long would give 10. Great price as well. Eric God blessed you with your talent. Keep up the great work my friend. I will reach out to you soon with a couple more jobs. Thanks for everything again.

Eric restored 2 very old photograph portraits of me that were taken 38 years ago. I am giving them to my fiancé as a wedding gift. The end results was fabulous and they will make an amazing gift. These restored photographs really demonstrates how knowledgeable and talented he is. The pictures really came to life. He was enjoyable to work with and a good listener. I highly recommend him. You will be pleased.
