Gallery Exhibition: Bill Schmidt
Fall Preserves Best for Winter Blues
Artist Statement:
This exhibit is my continued exploration of Licht Malerei, or light paintings, using contemporary photographic techniques (excluding AI). All work is created by my hand.
I started this ongoing project to enhance my photographic skills, focusing specifically on developing a method for creating paintings or painting-like images using photographic techniques. I feel I have been successful stylistically, emotionally, and visually. Although making the images is often challenging, they are a joy to create.
The creation process starts with basic photography. Once I have an acceptable image, I work with it on a large photo tablet using pen brushes to create the painted image. It is a little more complicated than mentioned, but once I have an image in mind, I can usually develop a technique to complete my creation. And, sometimes not!
Gallery hours are 1-5 pm, Tuesday through Sunday.
