"My name is Erica Hawkes and I create art as my passion and full time career. I paint in a few different styles, one I've called Cubist Impressionism. Simply put, I separate the colours of a scene and paint it back in using geometric shapes and lines. I also paint landscapes in a style I've called Nouveau 7, of which I borrow elements from the fabulous Group of Seven in Canada, and the beautiful flowing lines of Art Nouveau movement at the turn of the century."
