Eric John Hoffman is an artist who strives to create unique public art projects. Originally from the Midwest, Eric had a business career in sales most of his life. Three years ago after the birth of his second child he decided to pursue his artistic passion and work as an artist full time.

In 2008 he was awarded a solo show by the Mill Valley Arts Council at the Mill Valley City Hall in Mill Valley, CA.  Eric was extremely honored to have one of his art works from that exhibition added to the City of Mill Valley permanent collection, and is on display in the city hall lobby. In 2008 Hoffman also received a Career development grant awarded by the Marin Arts Council. This award will make possible the production of two new large public works that will be introduced at his show in San Francisco during October, before being placed on display in Marin County in 2009.

Eric recently has participated in exhibitions in the Gallery of the Marin County Civic Center and at the Hayward City Hall. Hoffman’s next exhibition is a two person show at the Hiram W. Johnson State Office Building (the  house for the California State Supreme Court). in San Francisco, CA

Hoffman lives with his wife and two children in San Rafael, CA.
