“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.”
- Edgar Degas
One day when Eryn was expecting Eden, she felt an incredible urge to paint. Not an artist at this time, it was an unusual feeling that she couldn't ignore. After a quick trip to the local craft store, Eryn (and Eden) set up a couple canvases and began to paint. Within minutes, the gift was revealed, and Eryn has been painting ever since.
With suspicions that the talent came from Eden, Eryn gave Eden watercolors and paper on her high chair, she was around 2 and a half years old.
The composition, scale, and use of colors for what Eden called "Birthday Cake" was obviously instinctive. And Eryn knew then that it was in fact Eden that had passed on her artistic talents to her.
Eryn's work has been featured in showrooms, shelter publications, within Elan Design interior design projects, as well as through other design firms', along with having collectors of her work in California, Florida, Pennsylvania, and New York. Eryn has also gifted many works to charities and auctions.

THE GIFT OF ART
Living in a home that is filled of artwork, Eden likes to gift her classmates with mini-paintings they can enjoy in their spaces.
Each piece was carefully selected for each friend. There is a sticker on the back which shows the direction, but we suggest you turn them on each side to see if there is another way that work may speak to you. Maybe you like it better upside-down!
Here are some ways they can be framed or used :
-
On a bulletin board
-
Slipped into the front of a glass container
-
As a little treat inside a medicine cabinet, closet, or drawer
-
Used in a dollhouse as original artwork
These little pieces can be framed to include in a gallery wall, on a small wall, or in a bookcase.
