Eric's BlogThe Artist's Oath
The Artist’s Oath is a personal commitment to how I show up creatively. It is a reminder to lead with integrity, to resist the pressure to perform, and to make work that reflects truth, not just what gets attention. It is a compass for navigating the tension between expression and permanence, and a way to stay rooted in what matters: presence, process, and purpose, not perfection.

Pioneers in any field are trailblazers, venturing into uncharted territory with little more than vision and determination.
They face skepticism, technical hurdles, and the challenge of defining what’s possible.
Their efforts lay the foundation for future advancements, and their legacy echoes through every new development that follows.
It’s natural for pioneers to feel a mix of pride, nostalgia, and even envy as newer generations rise to prominence.
These feelings are valid—human responses to rapid change.
Recognizing and honoring these emotions is important, but they shouldn't overshadow the shared progress that comes from building on past achievements.
As new technologies and movements gain traction, it’s easy for pioneers to fear their contributions will be forgotten.
Yet, progress doesn’t erase the past; it builds upon it.
Each new wave of innovation is a testament to the groundwork laid by those who came first, and their influence remains woven into the fabric of every new discovery.
