Corrie Erickson

Corrie Erickson, alt spelling "Erixon" (born 1981) in Northfield, Minnesota is an oil painter, graphic designer, and Tattoo artist.[1] Erickson created numerous Illustrations for the actor and comedian Patton Oswalt,[2] including the "Patton's 3rd Army" poster in 2005, as well as a similar design for fellow comedian and actor Zach Galifianakis.[3] Erickson also studied under the commercial artist John Berkey.

Erickson's paintings and illustrative works are often images of landscapes, hot rod culture, pin-up, and military themes and genres.

The United States Air Force 104th fighter squadron has used Erickson's Pin-up art for its Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II Fighter Jets, stationed in Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan. Erickson has been associated with the rejuvenation of "Bomber Pin Up" in the modern age, as reflected in the bomber pin-up art of World War Two.
