His quirky take on the world recently earned him the People’s Choice Award at the Waikato Society of the Arts 2011 National Youth Art Awards.

Aaron graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Whanganui UCOL’s Quay School of the Arts last year.

He was determined to major in painting from the outset of his degree and his sense of the absurd has featured in his realistic oil artworks throughout his four years of Fine Arts studies.

Aaron admits he is a perfectionist with his paintings and loves the intricate detailing and the finishing stage of his work.
