Aaron likes to describe his art as "sloppy realism"--from afar they might be realistic but close up they are just sloppy. He enjoys using his fingers, brushes, palate knives, and even flicking at the canvas./sf

Painting the landscapes of the North Shore has kept me sane. Happy to share happy art.

Hello Everyone! Get ready for drama! I might be a mild mannered award winning children's book writer and illustrator by day, but at night I'm a terror with the brushes. This is my first battle and I guarantee my inner child is going to let the paint fly. I can't wait to see what kind of mess I make and what kind of 20-minute masterpieces will prevail.
