"Collected Work 2008 – 2018 covers almost exactly 10 years of work, beginning with my first gallery shows. There are over 60 paintings featured, along with as many detail and progress shots as I could fit. I also tried to include some insight into the models whom I have worked with over the years, and what makes the artist-muse relationship so important. There are also secret codes." ––Aaron Nagel
