Comment:

He was helpful in guiding the creative process. Although he is a little bit "out there" so to speak, he is useful and very handy when it comes to solving construction problems.

Comment:

Irresponsible teacher who would rather students embody his vision of art rather than define their own. Has little understanding of modern works and is just straight up out of touch with current art. He's made several appointments with me in which he has either shown up 45 minutes late or just completely blew it off. It's hard to respect him.

SO MUCH FUN! This class with Eric was awesome! Flexible with deadlines, seems to want to give everyone a fair shot, gets excited about your work, and plus, you really get down to the nitty gritty of bronze work. I've never had any problems with him or contacting him.

Comment:

talk about a professor who knows what hes doing -eric knows more information about materials than i could ever dream of - hes incredibly supportive of people exploring other mediums and pushing their limits-if you are willing to work hard he will truly make you better in almost every way. his sophmore class created grander pieces than most seniors.

Comment:

He is excited about what he does, and has an addictive personality. He is extremely knowledgable with how to work with bronze. He will expect you to work hard and come to class but is that really so hard? Has a lot of experience outside of this University, most of which many artists only dream of being a part of. Be grateful to work w/ him.

Easy teacher. Makes a lot of really bad jokes. Not very helpful in the long run, basically supervises while you work. We did a total of three project all semester.

Comment:

Smiles like a Cheshire Cat as he talks circles around subjects he knows little to nothing about. Needs to retire. Not interested in testing artistic waters. Only interested in punching in and punching out. When is retirement anyway?

Doesn't know his contemporary art like a professor should to hold a university position. He has a ****ed (sexual) sense of humor that is hard to be around.

Words cannot describe the egreggious manner in which this professor has taken advantage of the state institution system. Taxpayer money is wasted on this persons paychecks. Seek enlightenment in a toilet bowl in preferrence to his guidance.
