-Can you tell the readers a little bit about yourself, name, what country you live in, age etc?
My name is Aron Wiesenfeld, I'm 38, and I live in California.
-What inspired you to start being creative?
I always had an instinct to build things. When I was about 7 I started building a fort in our backyard, and kept adding on to it for years. It became into a 3 floor structure with a deck, a fireplace, and hidden rooms. I just loved to see it grow and evolve without any plan, and that's what I feel I'm doing when I paint.
-Is making art your fulltime job, and if not, what else do you do?
Full time.
-Have you gone to art school, if yes where did you go and what did you study?
I went to Cooper Union in New York, and Art Center College in Pasadena, California, where I studied illustration. I didn't want to do illustration as a career, but it was a place I could study more traditional painting techniques.
-Where do you find inspiration?
Anywhere. I'm always looking out for it.
-Do you have a favorite artist and if so who and why?
I love Millet, for the mood he captured, and the power of his compositions, especially his drawings.
