Four canvas and two panoramic prints were recently installed in the Galligan Boardroom of the Civic Center. His photography is also installed at the Chase Corporate office in downtown Chicago.Erik has traveled the country coast to coast, typically with a camera close at hand. He has photographed places including Yosemite National Park, Grand Canyon, Sunset Crater, Sedona Arizona, Michigan shoreline, Nantucket Island, Washington D.C., Door County, Los Cabos and Pueto Vallarta, Mexico. Chicago is a favorite photographic subject as its hard glass, metal and concreate textures contrast with soft water, sky and other natural elements.
