“2 Beards” by Aaron Smith.“I start by  reacting to the photographs I collect. I take a very direct approach,  applying thick paint to panel. The lack of color of the source material  lets me create the color relationships I want. It’s my goal to imbue the  figures with bursting vitality despite their stoic poses.” -Aaron Smith in an interview with Advocate.
