01 praise
Within the confines of a single piece of white Strathmore charcoal paper, Erin creates stunning and dramatic portraits. She uses bold, sweeping lines that capture the animal's power and nobility. The artist uses dark smoky tones to create depth and texture while carefully blending and smudging the charcoal to create a range of subtle shades and highlights. The way she creates lends itself to an original piece of artwork that is unmatched. The love and comfort she puts into every drawing is captured through her attention to detail, crafting every line with love.

06 giving back
My commitment to donating to animal rescues and shelters runs deep—it's personal. I spent over 15 meaningful years working professionally with animals, and during that time, I witnessed firsthand the challenges and triumphs of animal rescue efforts. Every wag of a tail, every purr of contentment, and every hopeful glance from a rescued animal reinforced my belief in the importance of providing support to these organizations. That's why, with each order you place, we proudly pledge to donate 10 percent of the proceeds to animal rescues and shelters. These donations go beyond monetary value; they represent a lifeline for animals in need, ensuring they receive the care, attention, and second chances they so deserve.
From providing crucial medical treatment to offering a warm bed and a loving touch, these organizations are the unsung heroes of the animal kingdom. For me, giving back in this way is more than just a gesture—it's a heartfelt commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of animals who rely on our kindness and compassion. So, when you choose E. B. Artwork, you're not just investing in beautiful art; you're also joining me in our mission to support the furry friends who hold a special place in our hearts. Together, we can create a brighter future for animals in need. Thank you for being a part of this journey.
