Eric Ernest Johnson’s paintings are individually captured moments unlike the next, each work is unto its own world, its own vision, an Eric Ernest Johnson exhibition is almost like seeing a group show. Far Out and into retelling the stories of his mind’s eye, Johnson’s visions are often from a Bird’s Eye View. Impossible towers to the sky, or machines lost in nature, “I am obsessed with towers and steel, machines, things we’ve made living in the company of wild nature, trees, flowers, animals, monsters, the sea.”
