Aaron Skinner (aka kazpaz.art)

I’m an interdisciplinary artist currently based in Melbourne, Australia. These days I spend most of my time as an artist engrossed in urban sketching and watercolor painting, combining my loves of traditional art, travel and adventure. My work is largely inspired by my personal experiences, which I document spontaneously in my sketchbooks, either on location or from my photography. I truly am drawn to the power of place, how locations attribute to us a strong sense of identity, memory and meaning - and the beauty of capturing parts of our life journey through art. I love and appreciate the tactility of traditional mediums and being able to create art on the go through urban sketching. I take commission requests (see examples here and request one here!) and am working on selling prints at stores and markets.

I’m an avid film photographer and have also worked professionally in the video game industry as a game developer and animator for 8+ years - having worked at Electronic Arts, Activision and various independent teams on beloved franchises such as The Sims, Armello and Call of Duty.
