Light Painting Inspirational Artists Compilation Part II

This is the second part of my compilation of Inspiring Light Painting Artists. Again not a competition of any kind or top something list. There is so many great light painters out there and the fact that their work is not featured here doesnt make them any less great of significant. My purpose for this compilation was to get more people inspired to got out and try more stuff with some of this artworks that have been an inspiration for me.

A little info about the artists:

Alexandr Gnezdilov / Russia

Nuremberg based Alexandr Gnezdilov started lightpainting with a normal, non dslr camera. He is a perfect example that light painting is about creativity and experimenting even with simple tools. Great unusual combinations of colours and shapes are defining his artworks.

Jason D Page / USA

When you search in google about light painting you are for sure gonna land in his site. One of the coolest people in light painting, I believe the first who started creating and selling tools for light painting. His page is full of resources and inspiration and its worth to follow no matter if you are beginner or advanced in light painting. His work is also very inspirational, trying always new techniques and mixing nature elements with light painting.

Mart Barras / UK

If i would be giving any titles he could easily get “The master of indoor light painting”. Not that he hasnt produced a huge body of works outdoors too , but his creativity indoors has definitely took light painting for me to a different level. Unique use of toys / objects together with light painting techniques .. Definitely one to follow

Tim Gamble / UK

Based in Manchester , Tim has the “creative eye” . He started last year one of those 365 days challenges and thats how i discovered him in flickr. Great vision and use of various techniques and ways to achieve always visual satisfaction. He teams up often with other UK based light painters and collaborate in even more complex experiments.

Another american photographer , Chris has his own style. Light painting addict, he finds joy in creating an imagined image in a single exposure. Thought him i learned the use of manual lenses during one shot and his work has been always inspiring.
