WPKN Music, Arts, and Culture Podcast

WPKN's Valerie Richardson speaks with Eric March, a realist painter and draftsman whose work explores themes of urban life, urban environments, and narrative-often through dense multi-figural compositions. Since 2020 Eric has created five different large community-focused figurative artworks for public display at local health facilities, including Yale New Haven Hospital and Cornell Scott Hill Health Center.
 Eric also is an illustrator and a web designer and developer—and is the creator of this website! He currently teaches at the Art Students League (NYC) and Creative Arts Workshop (New Haven) and has been a primary organizer of Erector Square Open Studios for the past three years.
