La Calavera's up and coming artist of the Inland Empire: Eric Wright

Just like maiz turns into tortillas, stars are born and Galaxies are created.
Primero it began with Los Angeles, followed by San Diego, then The O.C. Now the Inland Empire has gone through its own Big Bang and an entire galaxy of potential has come into view. One particular star that burns brightly is mi amigo Eric Wright.

Quien es este hombre? (who is this man?)

He is a poet, a painter, an online game designer. On certain Monday Nights you can catch him reading his poetry ar Riverside's Mission district, inside the basement of the Back to the Grind Coffee Shop. A place where words fill the air like the cigarette smoke at a Jazz club. Words that express the inner feelings of young artists yearning for love, meaning in life, and joy.

On other occasions you can catch him at his oasis: an apartment complex that looks like somebody ripped a piece of San Francisco and dropped it in the middle of Riverside. There, he'll be busy working on either his online gaming project: www.mygameline.com or drawing beautiful works of art on his lap top.
