About Me?


I am available for illustrations and painting commissions!  Im currently working to expand my work in album cover illustration and concert posters.

Email me ericvansingel (@) gmail (dot) com to inquire!

I attended Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo Michigan.  B.F.A. painting emphasis from 1997-2002.  Area of study includes design, computer graphics, web design, art history, photography, and painting.  I mostly followed a traditional art education with oil and acrylics, but now work primarily with digital media on my iPad or in Photoshop with a Wacom Cintiq monitor.  I enjoy working with clients of a musical persuasion and pay close attention to the “outlaw” or “xxx” movement.  I am also working on a webcomic called “Here at the Dude Ranch”.

I now live in Richardson, Texas after a brief but successful tour in Austin, TX.  Texas is great, and I have been here more than 5 years now and have passed a number of tests that according my my father in law allows me to be deemed “Texan”.  Some of you may question this, but know that my daughter is 6th generation Texan.
