His earlier works include the “Process Paintings” produced with masking tape grids and often brightly coloured, mostly from the 1960s. His videotapes date mainly from 1973 to 1976. In 1979, Eric Cameron began applying coats of gesso to some objects that just happened to be lying around his Halifax apartment. Since then, a total of sixty or so “Thick Paintings” have been initiated; about half are in museum collections across Canada, while the rest continue to be worked on.
