Northwest Figurative Artists' Alliance
an organization of realist and figurative artists from the pacific northwest
Eric Eschenbach
I was born and raised in Seattle, and, as a northwest native, I have always been attracted to the varied land around us. From the lush, verdant western side of the mountains to the arid, sublime eastern side. Recently, man has altered the land, but, historically, nature has transformed the land in unimaginable ways. In our geologically rich area, vast floods of basalt one thousand feet thick covered the land only to be sculpted by vast floods of ice-age water. I paint to capture the essence of this changing landscape and the role of man in that landscape.
