The Offering
by Erica Lyn Schmidt
This piece was created in February 2018 for the Month of Love ‘White’ prompt.
I approached the ‘White’ theme from three directions: first was the color choice of white for the hummingbirds and the flower being presented. Second, white symbolizes purity with the innocence and bashfulness of the couple. Finally I played around with the effect of being very heavy-handed with white in the color mixing process, which resulted in a ghostly pastel palette that limited the saturation of the colors.
This painting is on a 6″x8″ oval cradled panel. The sides are finished: it comes wired and ready to hang.

Erica Lyn Schmidt
Blurring the lines between traditional painting and sculpture, her work explores the deeper meaning of life’s experiences through whimsical animals, metaphor, and prose. She loves creating characters that didn’t exist before, like conjuring new friends out of thin air. Sometimes a project takes on a life of its own—in these moments it feels like there’s magic in the room.
Erica has been a staple on the roster of Every Day Original, in several volumes of Infected by Art, and on the Chesley Suggestion List twice in the category of Three Dimensional Art. Beyond her own work, she strives to empower other artists as Community Manager of the artist coaching program Unleash Creativity with Marc Scheff. Her past clients include Simon and Schuster Books for Young Readers, 78 Tarot, Royal Tyrrell Museum, Burpee Museum of Natural History, private scientists and collectors.
