Eric Bailey is predominantly a painter, although he has a liking for drawing and designing from California. When looking at his work he has been influenced with many elements around him from skateboarding, graffiti, music and the influence of many artists. He paints mostly on canvas with oil based paints and you can see that clearly in his work, there are no perfect curves and lines as he likes to show more than just a perfect picture. In addition, he likes to show the obvious however, having that little more meaning behind a painting. He has worked with Nike and Adidas as well with many other businesses. Moreover, his work to me seems inspiring because of what he paints of, very understandable and easy to analyze, he paints things that I can relate to such as dogs so it is easy for me to be inspired but some of his work maybe labelled as a straightforward painting but it is the way he paints his work makes him different to other painters/designer, he paints every detail through the brush strokes that allows his work to communicate to viewers easily.
