Artist Statement:
In my paintings I have combined my love for Milwaukee and architecture in a series called Feels Like Coming Home. Every property in this collection has created memories for me that have shaped my time in Milwaukee for the last 18 years. In my paintings you may see playful colors, imperfect lines and textured layers. These features not only describe my work but my life in Milwaukee as well. I hope as a fellow resident of this city or even just the world you can see yourself in these buildings and find a connection with me and the places around us.
Aaron Davis:
Singing for others has brought me most of the good things in my life. Don’t believe me? My wife will be the first to say that music literally brought us together almost 10 years ago. Some of my favorite tunes of all time are from the Great American SongBook of jazz and pop standards that have stood the test of time. Think George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Nat King Cole, Andy Williams, Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. I bring a sense of joy and gratitude to every show I do because… well, frankly, I just can’t help it.
