The Healing Power of Original Art
Dear Friends and Collectors,
As the spring flowers begin to bloom, I’ve been reflecting on the profound impact art has on our wellbeing. Recent research confirms what many of us have intuitively known: surrounding ourselves with art significantly improves both physical and mental health.Â
Studies show that viewing and living with original artwork reduces stress hormones, lowers blood pressure, and creates moments of mindfulness in our busy lives. These health benefits make collecting art not just a passion, but a meaningful investment in our quality of life.
I believe the emotional connection we form with a painting is what creates this healing effect. When a particular landscape speaks to us, or a certain play of light and color resonates with our spirit, something powerful happens. That authentic connection brings a sense of peace and joy that can transform our living spaces into sanctuaries.
This month, I’m particularly excited to offer a special print of a painting very dear to my heart. “Ann” is a portrait I created shortly after art school, capturing my wife’s natural beauty – both within and without. This has been a hidden family treasure, and I’m pleased to now make it available as a limited edition print. There’s something timelessly serene about this portrait that seems to bring calm to any space it occupies, just like Ann herself.
I invite you to visit the gallery to experience our newest original works and the “Ann” print in person. As always, I’m grateful for your continued support and the joy of knowing my work brings beauty and well-being into your homes.
Warmly, Eric
