{ AARON GRAYUM resume }
.............................................................................................................................
"When I was a kid, I would draw
all kinds of things with all sorts of materials.
As a 5-year old, my artistic expertise and understanding
of the way life worked only went so far.
So a quarter-century later, with a little extra knowledge
and a few more skills in my paintbox,
I decided to travel back through my life
and give a new voice to my childhood self.
My hope in sharing my work with you is that perhaps you
will have the experience of getting lost for a moment,
away from the complications, the fears, the regrets, and the worries
that have sneaked into your life somewhere along the way.
I want these images to take you to another place entirely,
where you can remember what it was like to see through the fog
and into a world where anything is possible.”
— Aaron
