Artist/Printmaker Marti Schmidt combines ancient art forms
with modern impressionism and adds texture, shapes and
silhouettes that evoke a style distinctly her own.
Marti's art reflects the tropical ambiance of the
pan-Caribbean, the exotic mysticism of the south Pacific,
with the infusion of European flavor.
The latest modern artwork with it’s exotic imagery, bold
approach to color and layers upon layers of intaglio
etchings, wax, glazes and paint allow images to be exposed
from under layers. These techniques will draw the
viewer into her paintings and leave them with the feeling of
having been to far away places.
Her Latest works are influenced by art sabbaticals to France
reflecting the texture and colors of the French countryside,
the city lights of Paris and the ancient caves of Pech
Merle.
