Erica Neumann Bio

Erica Neumann is best known for her striking oil paintings of bears. These paintings first appeared in Canmore and Banff galleries in the mid nineties, and quickly became celebrated for bold brush strokes and rich colour, including cobalt blue, turquoise, oxide reds and periwinkle.

Her work has received widespread recognition in respected museums and galleries in Alberta, BC and the United States, including: Timeless Legacy Peace Park 2018 at the prestigious Hockaday Museum in Montana; and  a 2009 solo show at the Whyte Museum in Banff, AB in conjunction with a retrospective exhibition for Canadian icon Robert Bateman.

Public installations include The Artisan Gardens at Bow Valley Ranch, Calgary, and the Canmore Folk Festival stage backdrop. Publications include Bow Lake: Wellspring of Art, by Jane Lytton-Gooch; Spirit of the Wild: A lyrical Colouring Book, Heritage House Publications; and Home and Garden Magazine, UK.

A graduate of the Ontario College of Art Fine Art Program, Neumann also studied Art History at the University of Guelph.  It was after moving to Alberta where she still resides with her family, where she found her passion for painting bears and other wildlife.

Gallery 421 has proudly represented Erica Neumann since 2013. Wild Art for the wild at heart!
