Inner Vision

ABOUT

Aaron Piland is a Portland Oregon based artist and illustrator who blurs the line between mind and matter. Art is his native language which he uses to translate thoughts and feelings into color and form. Like an astronaut exploring the cosmos, he rides in a ship of the imagination exploring the mysterious inner dimensions of emptiness and form, visiting abstract landscapes that melt into the vastness of space on an epic search to bring back hidden treasures and ancient memories lost in the cosmic debris of time and space. He has worked extensively with traditional mediums such as acrylic, watercolor, and gouache as well as digital mediums such as procreate, photoshop, and illustrator and finds the two disciples complimentary. He works both as a painter for galleries and as an illustrator for clients. He holds a BFA from Kendall College of Art and Design and has worked professionally for the last 25 years.

He runs APAK STUDIO a collaborative art project with Ayumi Kajikawa. Their paintings have been shown in galleries and museums in Hawaii, New York, LA, Seattle, Portland, Europe, Australia, Japan, San Francisco, and Portland.

He has worked as a Teacher, Designer, Animator, and Illustrator for the past 20 years for clients such as PNCA, The Mercury, Wong Doody, AT&T, Mindful Magazine, Nickelodeon, Wired, Fast Company, Maxim, Business Week, Fortune, PC Magazine, Ready Made, SF Weekly, Portland Monthly, Entertainment Weekly, Business 2.0, and Popular Science.
