York County artist Erin Holberg puts celebrities on paper with pencil drawings
It seems like you like to focus on some celebrities? I have a lot of drawings of Adam Lambert. Back when he was on ("American Idol") I guess it was two years ago . . . I was really inspired by everything he did on the show, from his stage presence to his entire look to the charisma he brought when he performed each of his songs. I ended up drawing a picture of him two summers ago and posted it on some fan websites just to get my name out there. I ended up getting a commission from another fan . . . and then it just spiraled from there. I've gotten a lot of different commissions of him since. He's my biggest inspiration through art. I just really appreciate his style.
Has Lambert seen any of your work? I had drawn a picture of him in my free time just for fun, and I ended up posting it on Twitter.
Erin Holberg drew this picture of actress Kate Winslet. Holberg said she first discovered her talent in ninth grade when she drew a picture of Bono for her dad. (SUBMITTED)
In August (2010), his brother actually tweeted me. From there, I got a whole new group of viewers. I ended up selling the piece, and the woman I sold it to gave me a meet-and-greet ticket to see (Lambert) in Illinois. I did get to meet him, and he did get to sign two of my pieces. I'm so thankful for the experience.
