My name is Erica Jackson. I live and work in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I graduated from the University of the Arts in 2006 and have been working consistently since then to elevate my work and bring my own artistic voice to the forefront of my paintings. I have shown my work locally and regionally and look forward to bringing my work to a wider audience.
My most recent collection was born from a desire to explore the city I live in and see it in a different way. When I am going through my daily life, whether it’s walking in my neighborhood, running errands or commuting to work I see many beautiful and eye catching sights. They could be architectural, human or nature, but unless I’m taking my time and truly looking I’m only seeing a quick snapshot in these moments. I tend to miss the little details that make these already inspiring sights truly unique and wonderful.
When I started this series I wanted to explore that idea, that if we just take a moment to walk a little slower and expand our field of vision a little we’ll see things that could make us stop and take a minute to admire. From sights like architecture that celebrates classic design choices or explores a little whimsy with unique colors, patterns or layout, to the way colors and textures contrast and complement each other, to people going through their daily lives too, there’s so much to see and so much to admire.
I hope you enjoy this collection and it inspires you to pause for a moment or take your next walk a little slower, to enjoy the everyday beauty around you too.
