Scribner Art Studio

Erik Scribner

Born and raised in Neenah Wisconsin, Erik Scribner spent much of his adult life working, traveling, and studying languages in Asia and Europe.

Tragedy struck in 1997, when Scribner was completely blinded and paralyzed by a rare neurological disease. A seemingly impossible predicament for someone destined to eventually become a visual artist!

After more than two decades of recovery and focus (pun intended), Erik chose to develop his first loved skills of drawing and painting.  A self-taught abstract artist, Scribner recalls some of his earliest memories drawing and painting with watercolors at the family kitchen table.

Much of Scribner's inspiration comes from his past travels and visits to many of the world's most famous art museums. The majority of his favorite artists are Dutch. 

It's surprisingly ironic that Scribner (who is colorblind) uses a myriad of bright colors in most of his work.  Then again, much of what he does is surprising.

Please note: Unfortunately, given a change in life circumstances, Erik will be closing the shop and all prices have been reduced.
