Photography
As a teenager I began experimenting with light
painting, having seen time-exposure photography used to transform
city highways into ribbons of light. Long exposures were
made in dim or dark situations
using controlled lighting in the form of matches, flashlights, flash
bulbs, Christmas lights, car headlights, and other sources.
I later had the opportunity to try color light painting. No computer
manipulation was involved.
