Ea Eckerman

Ea Eckerman was born in California and moved to the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii at an early age. Raised on the beach and in the warm waters of the Pacific Ocean , Ea developed a deep appreciation for nature in its many forms and always looked to its beauty and strengths for inspiration.

Leaving the North Shore of Oahu in 1989 to attend the University of California at Santa Cruz , Ea found himself exploring a new coastline and new habitat for creativity. He received a Fine Arts Degree in 1993 and settled into a studio in Santa Cruz where he has been producing a large body of work. As a surfer and an artist, Ea’s work captures a unique aspect of California ’s Central Coast .

His work has been shown throughout the state and his pieces are in collections across the nation from New York to Hawaii .

Artist’s Statement

This recent grouping of paintings follows the line of the real and the abstract. They are often scientific in scope and surreal in form, color and presentation.

As painting requires both imagination and work of the hand, Ea’s unique perspective offers the viewer a subtle abstraction of the beauty that surrounds us.
