24"W x 30"H x 1.5"D Acrylic on Canvas
Walking past my condo after Hurricane Ian, I saw there was only one palm tree standing next to the wall of the building where previous were two. The starkness of the lone palm and its shadow on the wall captured my eye. The simple geometry and lighting found its way to my canvas.

Eric Radde followed his artist path by earning a Bachelors Degree in Fine Art from The University of Texas at Arlington with a minor in Graphic Communication. His artistic training led him down the path to a 30-year advertising career. His time as a Creative Director, and later as an agency owner, exposed him to the art in advertising and how it becomes fine art if viewed from a certain perspective.
In 2022, Eric (semi) retired from his advertising career and moved to Fort Myers to go back to his roots as a fine artist. Looking at large and small, Eric finds patterns and details around him to influence his work. His unique style blends geometric shapes, abstract elements, and a little quirkiness to the art inspirations he sees across the area’s coastal landscape.
Eric calls his new art style “Dr. Seuss meets Matisse”. It’s a blend of bold color, simplified shapes, and a love of things that make you look at the complex through the eyes of a cartoon-loving kid.
