Introduction
I’ve been an admirer of this kind of photography for sometime, practicing it as early as my time as a student at RISD, as early as 2014. But only in 2020 did I up the ante by beginning to take John Hartman’s Light Painting class. I say “beginning” because the COVID-19 pandemic prevented me from traveling to his studio in Wisconsin, where the course was scheduled to be conducted. The course was designed to be for in-person learning, but in 2020, in response to the on going pandemic, John developed an accompanying set of video lessons meant to cover the essentials of the in person version for those who could not, or preferred not to participate in the live course.
What follows is a log of sorts, of my work as it has progressed essentially from 2020 onward.
