Aaron Noble . Born 1961.

Aaron Noble's work is an amalgamation of comics, collage, and muralism. He primarily works on large-scale site-specific wall paintings and related works on paper and canvas. Noble cites the superhero comics of the sixties and seventies as an early influence.

Noble created his first etching, Luna, in the fall of 2005 at Wingate Studio in conjunction with the annual Smith College Print Workshop. To create Luna, Noble worked from a previous watercolor that began as a synthesis of various comic book fragments. The reconfigured comic parts in his work produce unpredictable and mysterious results. Working from the watercolor, Noble first superimposed a line drawing onto a copper plate and subsequently etched additional plates that provided more detail and color reminiscient of the comics that he references.

Noble exhibits at Pavel Zoubok and is represented by Booklyn Arts in NYC. His print was recently featured on the cover of the periodical Beautiful/Decay.
