One of the many unsolicited lessons of 2020 was the futility of planning for the unexpected. Despite my efforts to map out destinations and subjects to photograph, forces beyond my control repeatedly threw those plans aside.
After countless travel cancellations, July marked a turning point. It was my first trip during the pandemic—and my first visit to Yellowstone National Park. I embraced the opportunity to explore a new part of the country and to feel the rhythm of travel once again.
Much of my early work was focused on landscapes. While I learned a lot from that process, I found myself drawn more to the unpredictability of wildlife and the variety it offers. I also felt a deeper connection to animals than to scenery. To me, it’s often the difference between capturing emotion and capturing aesthetics.
Sometimes, a scene manages to evoke both.
Ironically, it was a bison that led me to this image. One morning in the park, I found myself crouched in wet grass, hoping for something more than the animal grazing with his head down. His departure into the forest led my eyes to this—a lone pine standing against a wall of trees. From the right angle, it needed no embellishment. The early light barely filtered through the fog, and a perfectly placed break in the treeline gave this one its moment in the spotlight.
For all the preparation that can go into an image, nature has a way of reminding you who's really in charge.
That morning captured the essence of that period better than I ever could. I was just grateful to experience it.

Eric works with a renowned print studio in Brooklyn, New York, known for decades of expertise in archival pigment printing. 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.

Most mornings in Yellowstone began well before sunrise—but those quiet hours were worth whatever ungodly alarm they required.

Archival papers differ in weight, material, and texture. Each is chosen to best serve the intent of the piece—from satin finishes that enhance tonal depth, to washi papers that offers a textured, tactile feel.
Silver gelatin prints combine modern digital exposure with the same light-sensitive papers and chemical processing that have defined darkroom practice for over a century.
The gelatin layer renders fine detail and textures, rich blacks, and a wide tonal range, giving each print its characteristic dimensionality.
Each edition is limited to the number of prints indicated. Every work is proofed, reviewed, signed, and accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
A select number of Artist Proofs are reserved for the artist, family, or collectors.
Platinum-palladium printing originated in the 19th century and remains one of the most time-honored and labor-intensive photographic processes. A digital photograph is converted into a negative, which is then used in this traditional contact method.
Each piece is prepared and produced by hand.
Platinum prints are known for their smooth tonal transitions, matte surface, and subtly warm character.
The visible brush strokes around the edges reveal the hand-coated process—no two prints will ever be the same.
A brush-applied coating of platinum and palladium salts is exposed to ultraviolet light through a digitally produced negative. The platinum particles are activated and become physically embedded into the fibers of the paper.
The result is a print with extraordinary archival permanence measured in centuries—commonly cited at over 1,000 years.
