“Painted entirely by emotion, mostly frustration, I smeared acrylic paint, and I wet down my canvas in an angry fashion. I worked quickly,” says fine artist Stefanie Schmidt. “When I took a step back, I saw Banff National Park. I have never been there, nor have I used a photo reference. I believe art is a spiritual process, and sometimes my hand takes over and the magic happens.”
