Erika S. Pereda

The great American artist, Edward Hopper, put it quite simply, “If I could say it in words, there would be no reason to paint.”

I find great catharsis in art and as a result my artwork is usually inspired by some human emotion, whether that is excitement, confusion, ecstasy, contentment, or passion itself. My goal as an artist is to be able to express my feeling and also to evoke some sort of sentiment from the viewer. If I have stimulated any sort of emotion from the viewer, I feel I have achieved my objective. One of the greatest endeavors in artwork is to share your art with the world, so please ENJOY!
