After graduating from the National Art School (NAS) in East Sydney, Darlinghurst, in the 1960’s Erin began her work as a designer at various agencies in Sydney. 

In 1979, Erin founded and established Corlette Design, a branding, wayfinding, and graphics agency which today has offices in Sydney, Singapore, Shanghai and London.

Erin has nurtured her interest for painting over many years and actively engaged and collaborated with artists at the National Art School and Woollahra Waverley Art School to further develop her artistic pursuit. 

Based in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Erin has a studio in the grounds of a beautiful garden. Erin’s painting practice explores the flora and landscape, which serves as an endless source of inspiration through its seasonal colours. Her work encapsulates the energy and beauty found in nature, reflecting a lifelong dedication to creativity and artistic exploration.

More recently, her artistic direction has developed towards more abstract forms, which are characterised by vibrant colours and dynamic movement. Her art is energised by her profound passion for colour and the constant inspiration she draws from the wonders of nature that surround her every day.

Erin’s work has been exhibited in galleries across the Southern Highlands, Newcastle, and Sydney. Her first Solo Exhibition, “A Garden in the Clouds’ featured at The SHAC Gallery Robertson in September 2024.
