BCA Studio Resident

Aileen Erickson is an artist who currently works in painting and assemblage.  Natural elements are always present in her 3D work that often inspires her  paintings. Her art focuses on subjective images of nature which reflect personal  mood and experience. Mostly due to developing physical sensitivities, she has  moved from printmaking to paper to acrylic to oil. This necessity to start over with  each move has resulted in a certain freshness of approach. Erickson attended The  Skowhegan School of Painting and The Art Students League in New York.  In Boston, she is an active member of the local artistic community, having been  part of The Experimental Etching Studio for six years and having a studio at The  Boston Center for the Arts for over fifty years. She has exhibited her work at  Brandeis University’s Dreiser Gallery, Boston City Hall, Wheaton College’s Beard  and Weil Art Galleries, Brickbottom Gallery, Mills Gallery, and most recently The  Bromfield Gallery. 

Aileen comes from a family of art lovers, especially her mother. She is married to  an artist, and they live together in Cambridge, MA where they raised a daughter  and two dogs sequentially.

 

ASB Visual Artist since 1973.
