Aron John Dubois

Aron John Dubois is a painter and an internationally recognized tattoo artist based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. With no formal arts education, Dubois has honed his craft in tattooing, painting, ceramics, and other media by meticulous study and self-directed practice. His work predominantly addresses the enigma of nature, corporeality, and archetypal drama through a lens influenced by art brut, folk mysticism, anthropology, and the grotesque. Working primarily on paper media with layered watercolor, ink, and gouache, he creates earthly altar-like compositions decorated with a symbolic language born of his own mythology and spiritual inquiry.
