Erika Stearly
“I’m inspired by the endless possibilities that interiors offer. In a domestic space, there are geometric and organic shapes. There’s an opportunity for pattern in fabrics. I get to paint different types of surfaces, like wood or carpet. Together all the material aspects of an interior represent a life and memories both familiar and unfamiliar.”
Overview
Erika Stearly makes paintings of the spaces where people live. Inspired by vintage home photographs and friend's houses, her paintings are documentary. They tell a story of familiar, nostalgic everyday life.
Combining layers of watercolor and acrylic paints, Stearly’s work is both transparent and opaque. The space between foreground, middle-ground and background are blurred like a dream. The work feels fluid and atmospheric. You could jump into her art and tap into all your senses. With an abstract and expressive style, you can see her hand and mind at work in both the big transparent layers as well as all the tiny details. It is art you can look at for hours and continue to see new things.
A lifelong resident of Pennsylvania, Erika Stearly had placed paintings of domestic spaces in both public and private collections around the world.
