Aron Johnston graduated from the
University of North Texas in 2000 with a BFA in painting. Benito
Huerta of the Circa Gallery at UTA included one of Johnston's painting in
the annual new-artists show at 500 Exposition Gallery in Dallas.
He has spent the last year living and painting in
Kuwait but plans to return to the Dallas-Ft. Worth area.
On sturdy canvas that he builds himself, Johnston
combines traditional oil painting with mixed-media techniques. He
often begins with objective subject matter which he layers with over-painting
and collage until the painting reveals its own world.
