Vibrantly colorful and textural, Aaron Wexler blends shape and form in his intensely expressive compositions. Wexler works from nature illustrations found books and magazines, creating drawings or collages of these materials. From these conventional representations of natural forms, Wexler creates colorful configurations that balance between literal and abstract forms. “My selection process of shapes, images and paint is based in poetic responses on how I respond to formal elements – it is in that act that I find profound meaning,” says Wexler.
