A new favorite painter, Eric Fortune is an artist who works largely in acrylic, and lucky for us, we can watch his sexy and mezmerizing work emerge on his blog.
I love the two above pieces (“The Demon Haunted World” and “The Secret of Oz), and they remind me of the incredible worlds of favorite author Serena Valentino. I’m especially tempted to see that I can buy a print of Secret of Oz.
His bio tells us,
Eric is an artist based out of Columbus, Ohio. He received his BFA from Columbus College of Art and Design where he was honored with the Outstanding Senior Award upon graduation. His work continued to garner acclaim with the acceptance into such prestigious annual competitions as The Society of Illustrators NY and LA as well as Spectrum and others. He was the Artist Guest of Honor for ConGlomeration and was recently awarded the Jack Gaughan Award for Best Emerging Artist of 2009.
Currently Eric is focusing his efforts on personal paintings and upcoming gallery shows. He has shown or will be showing at the Jonathan LeVine Gallery(NY) , LeBasse Projects (LA), Copro Nason Gallery (LA), Roq La Rue Gallery (Seattle), Gallery 1988 (LA), and many others.
