About Me
- aaronlifferth
- Painting really is one of the greatest challenges of my life, and I love that challenge. I cannot think of a time in my life when some form of art was not part of who I am. Art definitely defines in part whom I have become. I love the process of painting. The decision making along the way seems to be part instinctual and part learned, which allows for an internal dialogue that somehow connects all artists of any discipline. I use Utrecht paints for no other reason than convenience in proximity. As for brushes, I currently use Utrecht’s watercolor brushes (which may seem odd for oil paints). I find they give a nice flat application of paint. I also like that these brushes are less expensive, compared to high priced oil brushes. As for the success of any artist, I believe the key is in the doing. For me that means learning as much as I can from artists I admire, while ignoring their advice; thus allowing for my own response. I have a BFA from the University of Utah, where I studied mainly under John Erickson. I was invited to be an Artist in Residence down in Helper, Utah during the summer of 2004.

This is the kind of thing you
do with colour and light that
amazes me!!
How are you liking the new studio? -- it certainly looks like you're
enjoying it.

Wonderful. I'm a bidder. Can't wait to own a few of your works.
I love your style. It is amazing how you can paint with a strong emphasis showing where planes are. How did you learn this? Do you have any book recommendations that help teach this style??
Thanks--
Love your work!
Colors great. Minimal paint strokes are great. Soft diffuse edges are great.
Hello everyone. Thanks for all the comments. Matt, trying to show planes is what I try to do, but don't always get right, so thank you. There is an out of print book, How to see color and paint it, by Arthur Stern. I also think workshops are a great way to learn. Feel free to email me.
Aaron.
Aaron, gorgeous brushwork! Holly
Beautiful! I tried to subscribe to your blog...but I can't get past the word verification. It keeps asking me to re-enter. The only difference I can see...is some letters are a bit larger, than others, and some are bold. How can you do get past that window?
Hey c.abla, Sorry about that. As far as I know you need to make sure you enter your email first (on my blog site) then hit subscribe. The word verification comes later, and the bold letters do not matter. If it still does not work just email me @ yellowfroggs@yahoo.com.
Beautiful! I'm enjoying the work on the Daily Painting site. Love this!
Wow! This is a hit! I admire your ability to abstract what you see.
Beautiful and very inspiring work!
