After the attack on the World Trade Center Aronson headed to ground zero. During her visit she noticed a piece of rust on one of the remaining steel columns. This inspired her Leaves Series, seeing leaves as an homage to the tragedy. Miranda McClintic wrote: Aronson started the series with straight-forward depictions of leaves, isolated from their natural context on complementary colored grounds. As time went on she increasingly monumentalized and abstracted their forms, layering different kinds of leaves, with contrasting colors, shapes and textures. The close-up camera views on which the paintings and watercolors of leaves are based allow for microscopic examination of multiple surface variations and tones, while their large scale, rich colors, and dense layering of paint transforms them into dramatic emblems.
