Hicks, Alan

Identical twins Alan and Aaron Hicks or “Twin Hicks”, raised in Chicago, share not only a birthdate but also an indistinguishable artistic style. From childhood, their mutual passion for drawing burgeoned into a profound desire to capture life’s essence through various artistic mediums. While Alan wields his creativity with his left hand and Aaron with his right, both pursued academic and artistic excellence at the University of Illinois, graduating with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Biocommunications/Medical Illustrations in 1985. Their commitment to spiritual and family-centric themes is evident in their nationwide exhibitions and features in publications like Ebony, Jet, and Upscale Magazine. Regardless of whether they collaborate or work individually, their artwork consistently astonishes with its remarkable color and detail.
