Eric studied at Croydon School of Art from 1946 to 1950 and at the Royal College of Art from 1950 to 1953 and is now a Member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour.

Early influences on his work were the Belgian artist Constant Permeke and Polish born Josef Herman. After studying, he taught at Reigate School of Art and in 1957 and was included in Jack Beddington’s survey Young Artists of Promise. He painted diverse subjects and in several styles over the years, including ton-up motorcyclists, cars, horse racing, cyclists, landscapes. Eric claimed that his pictures were related to where he lived: South London, Surrey, Kent, Mexico, Spain (where he owned an old farmhouse) and, latterly, Cornwall.
