Erin Williams • Village Galleries Maui

 

Erin Williams began her professional career as a full time artist in 1985 upon receiving her MFA in painting at the State University of New York at Albany where she was awarded with the Presidential Award for Excellence in Art.  After a bi-coastal upbringing between NY and CA, including studies at the Academy of Art in San Francisco, Erin returned to the west coast to settle down in a lush, picturesque valley outside of Eugene, OR.

In 2012 during a magical trip to visit her son who lives in Maui,  she was called to create a home away from home on the island to paint the spirit of Aloha.  She makes regular sojourns to the island of Maui where she is represented by Village Galleries in Lahaina.  Erin has been blessed and enriched by her art every day of her life and is grateful to all who have supported her on her path as an artist.

Artist Statement… It is my wish to create art filled with joy as a reminder of the joy inherent in being Divine creatures on this beautiful earth.
