Painting With Light ( Photography )

"Painting with Light" images are created by using a darkened room during a long exposure then using a flashlight as the only source of light. To understand the technique it may help to think of the light as paint, the flashlight as the paintbrush, and the surfaces in the room (flowers, skin, floor) as the canvas. The camera records the painting as it happens. A quick sweep of the flashlight facing towards the camera produces a thin white line. Illuminating a calf or a thigh sculpts a leg from a black wall. Moving the model during the exposure stretches, bulges and severs limbs.

We had aspirations to keep film alive at one point, until we needed to pay bills. Anyway, i'm learning how to navigate in here and hope to become more active real soon. Hope to see you sometime. -Jesse"

  • "Thanks for the invite, Jesse! :-) It might be a while before I can stop by, since my main mode of transportation is a bike and as you noticed I'm a bit hobbled up at the moment, but I definitely will come by when I'm more mobile. "

  • "Hey Karin, i'm new to this thing and am still trying to sort through it. I have a studio in midtown called Negative Space - we used to have a darkroom, but you can guess which way that went. Anyway, feel free to stop in to the space if you're in downtown. Our address is 2114 P st. I'm the gallery director for the space downstairs so just come in the front door. I'm in the bay this weekend, but will be back at it on Monday. Take care. Oh yeah, nice shoe..."
