I am an artist in SoCal creating handmade, double sided photography backgrounds, props, and risers for purchase or for rent. A little background- Art was something I did on the side due to the craziness of life. After being laid off from a job in real estate I held for 12 years and with little kids both about to start school, I was trying to figure out what I could do next. My husband and I started making and selling furniture out of our tiny 1-car condo garage and ended up custom making surfaces for a photographer. What started as a side hustle quickly became my full time gig. The day we realized I could paint and create beautiful backdrops all day, and support my family doing so, I felt a fire light inside me and there was no going back!Erickson Surfaces exists to equip other artists to craft beautiful stories. The people in our community are dynamic- they are creative and resourceful, they help others, they make us hungry, they hustle hard. This journey hasn't been without trials and I’ve learned a lot of hard lessons, but I’ve also seen the beauty in this community and how we come together. I love seeing my art and my story become a part of your art and your story.
