AARON LEIGHTON

A transplanted prairie boy now living in Toronto, Aaron studied illustration and design at ACAD. Both whimsical and weird, Aaron’s work is based on obsession with line and is inspired by elements such as graffiti, cartoons and tribal art. He enjoys the fact that despite what his grade 11 algebra teacher said, doodling in class did indeed pay off.
