I stumbled on the work of 17-year-old painter AJ while cruising through Tumblr recently. What the New Jersey based artist lacked in age she made up immensely in talent. Her work, which she documents with process shots she posts to Tumblr, is vibrant, poised and refined. It’s as if she’s possesd with an old soul. She coy-fully says she’s “no artist” but hopes she can “learn to be one.” If you ask our opinion she could give us a pointer or two.
