Item Special Note

Educated at Triton College of Fine Art in suburban Chicago and Arizona State University, Eric holds a BFA in Graphic Design with studies in painting and printing technology as well. He quickly realized that to become a world-class artist, you need to paint what you know.

Having ridden bikes for over forty years, painting them and the biker lifestyle is a natural for Eric. A lifetime of experiences at any race around, from the Drag strip to an Oval track has given Eric the understanding of what it takes to go racing as well. His knowledge of the subjects is what makes an Eric Herrmann painting stand-alone. He has won acclaim for not only his depiction of vehicles, but his use of composition and color as well. Collectors and corporations in over forty countries worldwide seek after Eric’s art. His art has been shown at The Petersen Museum in Los Angeles, The American Motorcycle Association Museum in Ohio, The San Diego Automotive Museum, and numerous galleries throughout the world. Eric exhibits his work at all the major motorcycle events as well as numerous racing venues annually. His artwork is used for advertisements, novels, menus, clothing lines, collectable coin sets, and fine art prints. Eric’s commissioned paintings include work for Jack Daniel’s, The Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction, Discount Tire Co., The Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and numerous other motorcycle and automotive related corporations. His art frequently appears in magazines such as Easyriders, Hot Bike, American Rider, The Robb Report, and Phoenix Magazine.

Eric’s original paintings take from three to five months to complete. They are all done by hand with only a brush on canvas and acrylic paint. Large in scale, averaging four foot by five foot, Eric’s originals have sold for over $70,000.00. All original paintings have been sold, and a waiting list usually exists. Eric and wife Suzanne reside in Cave Creek Arizona with sons Ian and Dustin, C-4, the Doberman, six motorcycles, several cars, trucks, quads, trailers…
