Eric "Esh" Hornsby is an American muralist and painter known for combining graffiti, portraiture,

and lush organic imagery into bold contemporary works. After a career in environmental

conservation, he became a full-time artist in 2017 and has since completed hundreds of murals

throughout the United States, Canada, and Costa Rica. His work draws inspiration from hip-hop

culture, nature, classical composition, and expressive color, creating paintings that feel both urban

and timeless. As founder of Tampa Bay Fresh Fest, Esh helped bring dozens of large-scale public

artworks to his community. Whether painting walls or fine art, his goal is to create memorable work

that connects people through beauty, energy, and craftsmanship.
