"I worked closely with Eric for over six and a half years at Whatif Productions on three published titles, many art tools and countless demos. During that time Eric consistently drove the Art department to high standards, and he single-handedly documented and maintained every aspect of our art spec, which grew to over one hundred pages. It's rare to find art talent that can model, texture, document and manage, but Eric does all of the above and he does them well."

"I worked with Eric for a number of years at Mondo Media, and was always impressed with his skills as an artist. He also had rare (among artists) technical skills and knowledge, and shared that information through his well-organized and careful documentation. As time went by, Eric became a director himself, and managed many challenging and unique projects. I recommend him without reservation."

"Eric has an impressive understanding of the technical aspects of real-time graphics. This gives him great insight into art direction, creation, and documentation. He sees how to direct his team to create art optimized for the underlying graphics engine without compromising quality. He documents the expected workings of the engine in sufficient detail for a programmer to build it. Eric is personable, thoughtful and reasonable. I enjoyed working with him."
