Aaron's Porcelain Bowls : The bowls are thrown and altered works, made of porcelain, and designed to hang on the wall. They are considered one of the ten most difficult works of art to create. Their three-dimensionality, exaggerated perspective, glaze technique and narrative update a significant 15th century Renaissance style into a 21st century neo-post modern sensibility. The article,"The Making of Welcome to Trinity" was featured in the November 2005 issue of the Australian magazine, Ceramics Technical. Most works take an average of 125-150 hours.Their archival durability is one of the standards of artistic longevity. The artist is considered to be one of the last people in the world creating this particular style of work. This body of work got its start in 1982 in Boulder, Colorado. Earlier works in this style from last century can be found at www.Modernarf.com Recent exhibitions: "Emeryville Celebration of the Arts" juried exhibition Emeryville, CA and "Animals In The Arts", the visual arts part of the "Carnival of the Animals" benefit performance by the "Barque" Chamber Orchestra, George Daugherty, Conductor, Amy Tan, Narrator, celebrating the 60th Anniversary of Pets Unlimited,Herbst Theatre Greenroom, San Francisco; Oct. 14. All Ticket Proceeds benefit Pets Unlimited as well as a portion of all sales and commissions made by the artists. PetsUnlimited.org

Artists of " Breaking the Silence II" : These works of art are from the recent exhibition, Breaking the Silence II: Questioning Power Now More Than Ever." The exhibition took place Oct. 11 - Nov. 24, 2004. A Bush supporter called the police on this show, calling it, "demonic, sadistic, obscene and highly unpatriotic." Some Democrats seemed to be somewhat afraid of it too. The exhibition stands as one of the premier exhibitions on political commentary in 2004. The artists own the copyrights of their respective works. All works are for sale.
