Eric Price is a gifted plein-air painter who grew up surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors and found solace in hiking, swimming, and sailing. This connection with nature allowed him to come to terms with his queer identity and influences the themes and subjects of his art.
His newest series, “The Beach Only Few Can See,” tells a powerful story that’s both personal and communal. His angels and mortals find camaraderie or solitude in the water, in intimate scenes that celebrates our relation with nature and reflect the values and traditions of a community.
He holds an MFA from the New York Academy of Art and finds inspiration in artists like Henry Scott Tuke, John Koch, and the American Impressionists. A career in book publishing, working with authors like Larry Kramer and Harold Pinter, only reinforced his innate and bewitching sense of story.
