Seascapes, wildlife, and flora from the shorelines of British Columbia — painted to carry the salt air, the spray, and the quiet of the coast into your home.
Erin Burge is a representational oil painter raised in the Okanagan and shaped by years on the west coast in Tofino — surfing, hiking, and learning the moods of the Pacific.
Her work moves between three subjects she returns to again and again: the restless ocean, the animals of the coast, and the flora of British Columbia. Each painting is an invitation to slow down and notice the beauty — and fragility — of the natural world.

Every canvas begins on the trail — in reference gathered while hiking and exploring the coast. From there each painting is built up in oils, layer over layer, until the light feels true.
