About the artist

Aaron Sheppard

b. 1976

The Nebraska born-and-raised Sheppard embodies remnants from his various lifestyles — construction worker, art student, drag performer (Barbie Q), rocker. The 6-foot-4 artist weathered the grit of Washington, D.C., wove through the New York underground scene performing in his band, Peter and the Pansexuals, and meditated with monks in Japanese temples. His long hair, mutton chops and eye makeup are a seeming amalgamation of a childhood spent in his grandfather’s lumberyard and his rock ’n’ roll dreams. A subtle cowboy drawl lingers from childhood summers spent with family in Amarillo, Texas.
