        Aaron Reed’s artistic journey began unexpectedly during
      high school when he enrolled in an advanced art class to
      enhance his GPA while pursuing a passion for basketball.
      Little did he know that this decision would lead him to
      discover his love for art and a latent talent for creative
      expression. In 2005, Reed was named the artist of the year
      at Valdosta State University. Post-college, he continued to
      hone his artistic skills, leading to a remarkable evolution in
      his work over the years.
