Item Description

36"x48" acrylic Wave painting on canvas by Hawaii local painter, Eric Robison.

Eric began his career as an artist when he was hired by Walt Disney Imagineering. As a concept designer, he worked on projects associated with the Disneyland Resort Paris, Disneyland Resort Tokyo, Walt Disney World Resort, and of course Disneyland Resort California.

His unique paintings of the classic Disney characters were discovered by Imagineering President Marty Sklar, and the rest as they say is history. Since then, he has become a best selling artist in Disney's theme parks, galleries and stores.

Some highlights of his Disney pieces include the 30th Anniversary of the Haunted Mansion, The Pirates of the Caribbean, The Matterhorn painting (tribute to Herbie Ryman,) and The original Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.

Besides the Walt Disney Company, Eric also worked as a consultant for Universal Studios, and Warner Bros. His list of credits also include the Vans World Cup of Surfing Triple Crown in Hawaii, NASA, and more.

In 2001, Eric was commissioned by Disneyland to create 100 Mickey Mouse portraits for Disneyland's 100th birthday of Walt. This exhibit opened in 2002 and sold out in 3 weeks. Following up on the 100 Mickeys success was his interpretations of 50 Donald Ducks for the Grand Opening of the New York Disney store on 5th avenue.

He works out of two studios; one in Hawaii, and the other in the French West Indies. His Fine Art expressionistic pieces have found international attention in France, Asia, Indonesia, Germany, and Los Angeles.

Eric’s latest Disney project has been the 5th Anniversary painting for the Disney Aulani Resort in Hawaii.

In 2019, Eric directed, wrote, and created all the visuals for his short film called The Hollow Moon. For this experimental film, he painted over 400 originals scenes that were blended with stop motion and experimental movements in animation. In 2019,The Hollow Moon won numerous awards internationally for Best Experimental Film.
