About the Item
Artist Comments
A child, adorned only with a cross pendant, bracelet, and earrings, sits on the grass and gazes upward in awe. Above, an orca whale floats mid-air, its massive form defying nature. The surreal pairing of the small child and the marine creature creates a striking contrast between innocence and power, land and sea.
About the Artist
Artist Eric Vanasse creates compositions that honor the resilience and spirit of nature. "I am driven to explore ideas and emotions connected to the environment and its living beings, especially those most vulnerable," says Eric. He hopes his paintings will reveal themselves over time, inviting reflection on our world and its wildlife. Eric paints in a corner of his own intimate gallery, where he also teaches classes and listens to eclectic music. When he’s not making art, he enjoys playing piano, learning languages, and walking in nature.
