"Chorus Line" 24x20I painted this one on canvas, and had a really fun time with it. I am sure anyone who has painted tulips knows that they can really move a great deal when there is a light source on them. I ended up painting this until three in the morning since they kept moving, and I didn't want them to change the next day.
"Grandma's Jar with Lemons" 16x16I can't seem to get away from some objects, but I really like painting this salt shaker.
"Nostalgia" 20x20This painting really put up a fight with me as I painted it and took a while to finish, still I learned some cool things while working on it and really enjoy the final product.
"Reflection Cluster" 20x20
"Stacked" or "Orange Mug" 16x20I have been so used to painting mugs on a small scale (6x8) that I forgot how invigorating it can be to paint large. I think the mug itself is about six or seven inches tall. It felt like stretching my legs out after a long car ride.

Aaron! I am SO happy to see your work again : ) It's such a pleasure to scroll down my blog list and see your pieces pop up. Your paintings have a wonderful sense about them.
I love "Chorus Line" and "Nostalgia".
wow! what a feast for the eyes.
Oh right, that's where my dishes are. Nice work. You're a fine fellow.
Aaron, I love that I came across your blog! Your work is inspiring and full of richness. I'll continue to be a follower.
Hi Aaron,
Each one of these is so amazing. I loved your description of moving from a small to a larger painting. It feels exactly like stretching after a long car ride. I also like using larger brushes, moving my hand in wider motions. So magnificent what you've produced. Thank you for sharing these beauties.
Take care,
Barbara
First, I'm so glad you're back!
Second, your work hasn't skipped a beat. I love love love that Chorus Line.
You're working through a step I've only begun to explore. When I do, I feel like I need my Home Depot brushes.
Thank you for being such a wonderful example and inspiration!
I found you through Carol Marine's blog last fall and was enthralled! I was so disappointed that you stopped posting but always kept your browser open
immersing myself in your postings as I develop my own representational painting. I've learned a lot from you! When I booted up my computer this morning and went to your site, I was SO pleased to see new work!!!!
Absolutely wonderful!!!
I love your use of greys. They're such colourful greys and hold the compositions together.
Stunning paintings, and a masterful use of colour!
Thanks for sharing them!

Glad to see you back and somehow better then before!
I can't understand why you left painting- You make paintings that sing! Love to see your much larger work!
I love your still life paintings. bright colors, lovely tones.
Wow, I'm really impressed with Chorus Line! I recall making only a brief drawing of tulips and them changing dramatically over that short period, so well done to you for sticking with them over a whole painting and producing such a great piece. It's wonderful to see you posting painting again.

Magnificent.
Gorgeous work Aaron! I've known your name & work for a long time, but haven't kept up on your posting. How's medical school going? I'm curious if your friend is doing any medical illustration. It's actually my 'real' job; been doing it for about 20 years (yikes...). Anyway - I hope you're enjoying the challenge of working the other side of your brain. Can't wait to see more from you!
all fabulous!! Grandmas' Jar with Lemon just hits me! The reds! Luscious!!!
Fabulous work! Haven't visited you in a while, and I'm glad I just did.
