Sivertson Gallery

Aaron paints from memory, sharing his experiences visually through the landscapes of northern Minnesota: birch, maple and evergreen forests, abundant wildlife, breathtaking vistas. His distinctive technique utilizes a singular brushstroke in vivid color on a black canvas—a work of light and contrast—with a graphic and expressive feeling. While painting, he often looks over his shoulder to see one of his children copying him, creating a little masterpiece of their own. “Pablo Picasso said every child is an artist; the problem is how to remain an artist once one grows up. I hope to never lose that childlike, passionate joy of creating.”
