“I have so many art ideas in my head, I don't know that I'll ever be able to make them all happen,” says Aaron Grayum. “I love helping people and connecting with them through my art. I also simply love the process of using a brush to paint colors on a canvas.”

 Aaron makes art for the inner child. “I try to connect to people who feel unseen, in a way that shows them they matter and are not alone. Using acrylic on canvas, I create images inspired by drawings I made when I was a kid -- like birds, umbrellas, and jelly bean trees -- speaking a language familiar to both children and adults. Words and poetry are integral to much of my work, allowing me to explore the tension between the playful innocence of childhood and the vulnerable truths of a grown-up world that doesn’t always understand.”
