"For 20 years, Erica—through images of the human body—has attempted to portray the human encounter with transcendence: art's experience of both transcendence and of being alive." – Shirley Stockdill, Topic (2002)
"Stark but seductive metaphorical paintings of anonymous solitary figures moving through ambiguous light-filled ethereal spaces." – Jack Anderson, Leader-Post (2002)
"The meaning of body travels across assorted materials like paper, graphite, beeswax, clay, steel and lead." – Bryne McLaughlin, Canadian Art (1999)
