Aaron Ulish will present his first solo exhibition, First cut: color, concrete and chaos, In the Adams County Arts Council from Friday, September 5th. The one-month shop window shows the striking pallet knife technology of the Gettysburg artist and his passion for taking emotions and architecture.
Ullish started painting eight years ago after the birth of his first child. “It was very humble, authorized, stressful, happy. I had all these feelings and needed a kind of socket,” he said. “I combine my painting career with father.” Partly inspired by Bob Ross's The joy of painting, Ulisch rely exclusively on pallet knives, a method of which he says he “revised it a piece” and focuses on expression rather than on perfection.
The architecture has become its specialty, with works with sights such as the Round Barn, the Federal Pointe Inn and Fallwater, Frank Lloyd Wright House near his hometown Latrobe, Pennsylvania, “You still have it with a picture of me in the lobby,” he said. “It is very flattering, it's a good memory.”
With a view to the future, Ullisch hopes to extend into the Pinn air painting and work outdoors to record scenes in real time. “Maybe the next year,” he said, “you will see me on the battlefield, which paints a sunset at Little Round Top.”
