Erin has won awards in national juried competitions and travels both here and abroad to gain new perspective and to teach. She began painting in watercolor, but has added both pastels and oils to her credit and enjoys the diversity and challenge that each medium presents. Her subject matter ranges from portraits to cottages and coastal vistas, rugged landscapes and European street scenes.

Her professional career began in 1980 when the first of her two sons was just 10 months old. Increased demand for her work over the years has led her to make them more widely available through prints, cards, calendars and needlework kits. Her husband is also her business partner, and oversees the marketing as well as the framing of all her works.
