About the Item

Artist Comments
In a forest where muted light filters through the trees, two brightly colored birds perch on a mossy branch. One sits calmly facing forward, while the other leans toward it with an open beak, full of animation. The contrast in their postures adds both energy and story to the tranquil woodland setting.


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.
