AaronSchuerr, a signature member of the Pastel Society of America, is a dedicated plein-air painter based in Livingston, Montana. Working in both oil and pastel, he brings a quiet intimacy and sensitive rendering of light to the varied landscapes of the Rocky Mountain West. He is represented by A.L. Swanson Gallery in Helena, Montana, and by Montana Trails Gallery in Bozeman, Montana.
In 2008 he will be teaching workshops in Yellowstone National Park, Montana's Paradise Valley, and in New Mexico. 
 
The Thoughtful Landscape: On Thursday April 10 at 6:30 PM Aaron will give a lecture at the Danforth Gallery in Livingston.  He will explain how method supports meaning in the masterful paintings of Joyce Lee and T. Allen Lawson.  Schuerr will examine the abstract qualities in representational art, what the landscape teaches us, and how a painting is constructed.


"I'm not just trying to paint a pretty picture; I'm trying to tell you what it was like to be there."
