Welcome to the portfolio of J. Schmidt. Painting, photography, sculpture, mixed media, drawings, architecture, and graphic design are displayed here. Art is static, allowing admiration from all sides, art is a living, growing installation, art is a page of unique computer code- art is whatever you believe it to be.

Art is that which is made with the intention of stimulating the human senses as well as the human mind and or spirit. An artwork is normally assessed in quality by the amount of stimulation it brings about. The impact it has on people, the amount of people that can relate to it, the degree of their appreciation, and the effect or influence it has or has had in the past, all accumulate to the 'degree of art.'
