About the Item
Aeling’s affinity for the Great Plains—rooted in decades of traveling the Dakotas, Wyoming, and eastern Colorado—emerges in this broad expanse of snow under a crystalline winter sky. The almost abstract simplicity of the forms recalls the painter’s belief that landscape can be reduced to elemental relationships: light to shadow, land to air, distance to nearness. The softness of the snow’s surface belies the severity of the environment. As in many of his winter scenes, Aeling captures both the emptiness and the quiet majesty of western space.

Jeff Aeling (1958–2025): The Sky Remembers
Through Jeff Aeling’s eyes, the landscape becomes a world shaped as much by air as by earth. In works such as North of Las Vegas, NM and Pond Near St. Cloud, MN, he balances the quiet structure of plains and wetlands with skies alive in constant motion. His mastery of atmosphere is unmistakable in Light Pillars (2023) and Light Pillar (2023), where rare optical events turn night into architecture. Even intimate scenes like Crabapple, Dogwoods, and Red Bud find their emotional power under skies that lend the land its shifting character.
Aeling’s winters in Hawaii deepened his sensitivity to movement and weather. Surfing taught him to read the rhythm of the ocean, a knowledge reflected in Wave, Kauai (2018), where a breaking wave becomes a luminous wall of force. In Volcano (2023), he channels the islands’ elemental drama, linking fire, vapor, and sky through the same atmospheric vocabulary found in his plains paintings.
Though often compared to American landscape painters like Church and Bierstadt, Aeling’s work engages modernity in subtle ways. He began his paintings with the camera—driving for hours to capture a fleeting alignment of cloud, light, and terrain. In the studio, he removed all traces of people or infrastructure, preserving the landscape as a pure, uncontrollable presence. This blend of tradition and contemporary practice allowed him to honor the past while speaking clearly to the present.
Together, these works—whether a crashing wave, a blooming tree, a volcanic plume, or a column of winter light—form a portrait of the world as Aeling experienced it: vast, luminous, and alive with change. The Sky Remembers is both a tribute and an invitation to see the land with the reverence he carried throughout his life.

Jeff Aeling
Iowa-born artist Jeff Aeling brings striking, enveloping Photorealism to his landscape paintings of the American Southwest. If there is enough distance between a viewer and one of Aeling’s works that the delicate brush strokes are rendered nearly invisible, the act of determining whether it’s a painting or a photograph becomes an arduous task.
Aeling begins his work by taking photographs of his subject. He maintains that the work loses something when painting outdoors, and the lens of photography better captures one’s perception and memory of the experience. The artist conveys the feelings of freedom that a big-sky horizon might afford or the intimacy that a forest glade can provide. He captures the heaviness and chaos of a thunderstorm as masterfully as he depicts the tranquility of an island sunset, and for his realist style and focus on nature, he has drawn comparisons to the Barbizon and Hudson River schools, respectively.
Aeling was born in Iowa City. His father was an army doctor, so Jeff moved around a lot as a child. While his family lived in Hawaii for one of his father's postings, Aeling developed an appreciation and connection to nature.
Though he’d been painting for years by then, he found representation at the Medicine Man Gallery of Tucson, Arizona, in the mid-1990s. Aeling now lives and works in St. Louis, Missouri, where he continues to capture the essence of nature in its purest form.

View AllNear Wagon Mound, NM - Realistic Landscape Oil Painting
By Jeff Aeling
Located in Chicago, IL
Aeling’s fascination with meteorology is unmistakable in this dramatic skyscape. Since his earliest years in the West, he has been captivated by weather’s capacity to alter the emotional temperature of a landscape. In this painting, the low, turbulent cloudbank reveals his deep knowledge of sky structures—an understanding informed by both scientific observation and personal experience. The luminous blue patches above suggest hope breaking through uncertainty, a recurring theme in his atmospheric work.
