About Erin Wilson

Erin Wilson is a Metro Detroit artist specializing in authentic, human-created art, primarily through custom graphite, oil or pastels. Her work focuses on creating sentimental, on-of-a-kind commissions from photographs or small everyday moment inspired self expressions. Her mission is to provide a direct, personal alternative to mass-produced and AI-generated art.

She came into art at a young age and began using it as a tool to help reduce her anxiety and navigate her way through PTSD. Art gives her an outlet to be herself, and she uses it to find connection with others and the world around her.

Erin is an advocated for normalizing mental health issues and hopes through her art and sharing she can help others speak openly as well.
