Erin D. Moore is a graduate of Fine Arts at SUNY Purchase College in New York. While there, she built an extensive background in photography, painting, drawing, sculpting, and modeling, which paved the way to her most favorite art form, mosaics.

Erin has been working as a decorative painter throughout the metropolitan area for the past ten years. Her techniques include: glazing, textures, Venetian plaster, damask/stenciling, gold/silver leafing, antiquing, and handpainting.

Plying her trade in some of the most beautiful and exclusive homes and restaurants in New York and New Jersey, she later added tiling kitchens and bathrooms to her repertoire. Working with these materials inspired Erin to translate her many skills and overall artistic vision to the mosaic art form. She began creating her uniquely signature mirrors, candleholders, pots and portraits as birthday, holiday, wedding or anniversary gifts for family and friends. In 1999 she displayed her creations for the first time professionally in several art shows and sold dozens of items. Requests soon followed, and now with the advent of this web site, her incredible pieces now have an international audience.

Each of Erin's pieces is handcrafted and meticulously assembled from various tiles and textures in a myriad of colors and configurations. Working in ceramic, marble, glass, stone, relic and more, many of the designs are accented with stone and marbles to add several eye-catching dimensions.

Some of Erin's influences in the art field range from the classically sweeping style of Michelangelo to the mercurial, Pablo Picasso, all the way to more modern interpretations by Frida Kahlo, Henry Miller, and her friend and fellow painter/singer/songwriter, Dan Bern. She and Bern recently finished a painting project together in New York City. Erin provided graphic, mosaic and photograph work for two of the last three books by author James Campion who is a columnist for the Aquarian Weekly and also Erin's husband.
