Artist Statement

My artwork expresses the power and beauty of nature, music and manmade wonder. I use acrylic paints, sometimes with a watercolor technique, so people often comment that my art looks like watercolor, even though it’s acrylic. While I most often paint nature, I also have a collection of album cover-inspired art. Lately, I’ve been doing gothic and dark abstract paintings, and I love getting creative with it.

Anne’s Music

Art is another artistic expression for me. I also create music, both solo music and music with my band, Upon Wings. I’ve designed almost all of the album covers for my music to day. Find Upon Wings on Spotify and Apple Music by searching “Upon Wings,” and find my solo music by searching “Anne Autumn Erickson.” Find my music on my band’s website at UponWings.com.
