Erin Hollingshead
TOUR STOP #3
Erin is a painter, printmaker, and illustrator living on the east coast of Canada in Kjipuktuk (Halifax, Nova Scotia). Erin loves to spend her time surfing, swimming, paddling and walking along the coast. Her artworks reflect upon these experiences by recreating the most magical moments that connecting with the water and nature has had to offer. Erin attended NSCAD University where she majored in painting, and has been creating this body of work for the past 8 years.
Her illustrations are typically done with ink and watercolour, paintings typically with oil paint and her primary form of print is relief. Erin enjoys creating artworks of still lives of things she finds on the beach and in the water, all aspects of surfing and surf culture, as well as exploring ocean folklore, legends and myths.
