Erin reflects our world though the lens of 
Detail 9: her signature look of re-imagining closeups 
into new perspectives. Abstractions of form create layers
of imagery that reveal a new visual reality.

The sources of her inspiration are what she loves around her -  
 children in the water, a feather on the beach,
  the way the ceiling meets the molding...
the everyday around us.  

Always searching for the perfect composition,
Erin discovers the simple beauty in the world
 and transforms it .

​Each image takes Erin on a journey of abstraction.
Deconstructing something into a detail creates a new object.
Reimagining that detail into a fresh perspective 
creates a surpise everytime. 
“I never know where an image will take me,” she says.
“It’s a new ride every time.” 

Erin studied at Parsons School of Design, where she earned a BFA.
In her early years as an art director in fashion, Erin formed her 
stylistic sensibillities that she carries with her to this day. 

She moved to San Francisco in 1997 to join Hal Riney and Partners.
There, her mentors introduced her to a refined and modern
 design aesthetic. 

As an awarded creative director, Erin has appeared 
on the cover of both San Francisco Magazine’s design issue
 and Adweek’s best creatives issue. 

She and her family split their time between San Francisco and Bolinas.
 Always remarking on the strong contrasts of 
both areas being so close to one another, their differences 
are a constant source of creative inspiration for her.
