Over the past few years Aurel Schmidt has been steadily earning her stripes and securing her position as one of the country’s premiere contemporary artists, which in NYC in the late 2000’s can be about as difficult a thing to pull off as there is. Canadian-born, the Vice camp favorite has mastered a hand-style that is both rare and completely arresting in this digitized age- a style which is only made more powerful buy how well it is executed.
Check out Aurel’s page at Tiny Vices to see more of her drawings and this interview to learn more about what makes an artists brain work when they are detailing the finer points of New York’s unwanted insects, cigarette butts, and discarded refuse. A beautiful lot!
