Eric Shine is a current Fine Arts student at Parkland
College. In 2011, Eric was awarded the Don Lake Art Scholarship and the
Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts Scholarship. That summer Eric traveled to
Arrowmont in the foothills of the Great Smokey Mountains to attend a week-long
workshop in resin casting. Asking himself, “Why not?” He encased a raw slab of
bacon in resin. This piece won a Merit Award in the 2012 Governor’s State
Community College Juried Art Exhibition.
Always the curious learner, Eric traveled to Guinea, West Africa to learn traditional lost-wax
bronze casting through Antioch University. For six months Eric apprenticed with
master caster, Sekou Berete.
Join us and listen as Eric shares his experience
traveling and working in Guinea, West Africa.
