Erica gained inspiration for the blog’s name from her childhood nickname that implied her face shape resembled that of an egg. She sees the words ‘egg’ and ‘canvas’ as working together to represent creating life as a blank canvas.
As with many of the blogs, the posts on Egg Canvas are predominantly visual – with the main text being the occasional photo caption supplemented with a few paragraphs of explanation where necessary.
The blog also includes a sizeable section showcasing the latest New York Fashion Week.
