Aidan lives in Houston, Texas and is in the 4th grade. He is being treated for pilocytic astrocytoma, which is associated with neurofibromatosis. Aidan enjoys writing and is also a tennis player. His first design for the Children’s Art Project — a galloping cowboy in the “Go!” book — set the pace for an inclination towards Western-themed art. In this collection, Aidan’s creations include a red barn with a herd of cattle on the September page of the 2008 calendar, as well as a longhorn in the “Animal Parade” book, on thank you cards and on a resin frame.
