There are few feelings quite like returning home.
Stepping off the plane in January of this year, I was hit with the same response I feel whenever I arrive in Florida. The air breathes differently—it's the warmth and humidity, but also the extra weight of a decade of memories growing up there. It’s an immediate boost.
For all those years near the coast, there were certain shapes that remained just that—obscure outlines visible from above the surface. Shadows that would creep along without making a disturbance. They were every bit like extras in a movie. There, but seemingly inconsequential to what’s unfolding around you.
This visit would be different. With a doubled-up wetsuit, short fins, mask, snorkel, and my camera, I joined these animals in their world. The curtains were pulled on their—let’s call them—“bold” figures and their gentle but curious nature. Hardly hydrodynamic, yet they glide along effortlessly as they go about their day.
These quiet and unassuming figures are every bit deserving of their own moment in the spotlight.
Over those next few days, the extras would become the stars.

The local lab allows for a collaborative approach, ensuring that his intended vision is expressed in the final artwork. When cared for properly, archival pigment prints can last for over a century.
Archival Pigment Prints
Modern printmaking, refined. Pigment prints utilize state-of-the-art digital technology and high-quality pigment-based inks to achieve striking reproductions. A digital image is applied directly onto the paper using precision inkjet printers, ensuring both image quality and longevity.
Vision meets the surface. Archival papers differ in weight, material, and texture. A paper is chosen to best suit the intent of the piece, from satin finishes to enhance rich shadows and colors, to handmade Japanese rice paper that offers a more textured and vintage feel.
The edition size ensures that only the number of prints indicated will ever be produced. Each print is proofed, reviewed, numbered, and signed by Eric, and includes a Certificate of Authenticity that is unique to your artwork.
