“Affirmations of Color and Life” are recent painting of Aaron Lubrick. Lubrick’s work depicts many scenes from his daily interactions of being an art teacher, father, and artist. Finding moments of color orchestrated within compositions of playgrounds, construction scenes, and still-lifes. Lubrick relies on symbolism and an overall sense of gesture to make his paintings feel fresh and alive.

The Allied Drawers Consortium will also be represented in September at Pyro Gallery. Each artist will have one figure drawing represented and one personal piece of art. Aaron Lubrick was a founding member of The Allied Drawers Consortium. The following member artists have been drawing together for 5 years now: Noah Howard, Colleen Clines, Maggie Clines, Richard Sullivan, Kevin Arthur, and Aaron Lubrick.
