Rich Schleicher

I typically paint oils in plein-air in an impressionist style. I have been painting in that style for 10 years part time. Two years ago I began my journey as an artist full time. This year I am experimenting with a variety of mediums and processes. After taking a class on Cyanotype printing and a class on Collage, I incorporated both in this submission.
