I chose this artist beacuse he is very creative and he made my favorite fairy tales from my childhood. Aaron has a very high level of technique and his digital paintings are very detailed. This artist is full of emotions which he uses in his art. I like him because he uses lots of techniqes in digital paint- ing. He use for example in digital painting textures of ani- mals. The painting becomes very lively with these textures. Aaron helped me beacuse he showed me lots of tips through his tutorials. Aaron loves music - rock and jazz.
