About

Studio Member since 2016

b.1974

Aaron Kleeblatt is a prolific artist whose portfolio is both sharp and vibrant. His work can be identified by his minimalist approach to portraits- many being of American musicians or celebrities.

“Musicians and politicians, those are my favorite kind of people to draw. I just like them. They are my favorite personalities—vibrant personalities. Drawing the figures. Painting them.”

His artworks are minimal by design and then energized with color palettes reminiscent of pop art. A movie buff, Kleeblatt has been known to say “movies are my life”. This cinematic influence is witnessed through dramatic contrast and the deliberate character building in his works.

“It diverts me away from everyday life. Because then I don’t have to worry about racism, politics and all of the other stuff going on in the world.”

Kleeblatt has been a member of the North Shore studio’s curating team since 2018. Aaron was the North Shore Studio Artist of the Month in August 2018, and his artwork appeared in our 2019 agency calendar.
