Made (Up): Recent Paintings by Bill Schmidt
View through Artsy
"Making one of my paintings is like crossing a stream, one rock at a time. I know I want to get to the far bank but I don't know exactly where I'll land... [They] come into existence by virtue of an accumulation of choices, missteps, adjustments, accidents, rethinkings, and sometimes just plain luck - not unlike life itself. while making these paintings, as in life, I often don't know what's around the corner."
