Jeff Aeling
(1958-2025)
Jeff Aeling was first drawn to the interplay of land, sky, and water during his childhood, when his family moved to Hawaii. Ever since, he’s been infatuated with the beauty of nature; something he has imbued into his extraordinary paintings. Within the strokes of his brush lies a world of emotion, permeating his panel with a warm and welcoming melancholy. Now based in St Louis, Missouri, Aeling creates serene oil paintings on panel that depict the relationship between nature and the self, working from photographs in his studio rather than en plein air. His past works include Midwestern landscapes in which cloud-heavy skies contrast with flat plains and Hawaiian seascapes, their roiling waves conveying a sense of tranquility nevertheless.
