This Weeks Window - Eric Waugh

This week sees American Artist Eric Waugh's festive music originals in the window - just in time for Woodstook Live - An array of musical talent playing throughout the town. Listen...enjoy...wander the town...eat, drink, bop and be merry!!

Born in Montreal in 1963, Eric Waugh showed an early talent for art and design, as well as a strong head for business. These two skills were united when, barely in his twenties, he started his own company; distributing gifts when he designed, packaged, manufactured and marketed himself.

During this time his brother, a successful art dealer, encouraged Eric to take a risk and produce some fine art of his own. Eventually he was persuaded and the rest is history! Eric's extraordinary contemporary abstracts employ a distintive palette, juxtaposing pastel shades with vivid explosions of colour. His dynamic interpretations of music and dance are characterised by energy, grace and above all, vitality, reflecting his own positivity joie de vivre.

Since 1968, Eric has been quietly making his way to the top of the international art scene. He has produced a substantial body of exceptional Original Paintings on paper and canvas, and his popularity among art connoisseurs has escalated to the point where he is represented in galleries in every major city in North America. His paintings have been acquired by numerous major corporations and private collectors all over the world, and he has held sell out exhibitions in Europe, the USA, Canada and Japan.
