Eric was born and raised in Santa Monica. He currently works at the oldest plant nursery in the city, going on almost 90 years. During this time, he has built a strong connection to pottery makers in Egypt and loves to distress them and bring them to life. Previously, he converted his home in Mar Vista to the smallest certified organic farm in California. He sold at farmers markets in Santa Monica, Topanga Canyon, Culver City, Mar Vista, and manhattan beach. Although growing food is his biggest love, Eric loves the artistry and time necessary to convert these into treasures. They are also great as raw vessels, depending on needs.
