Janne Parviainen

Light Painter Janne Parviainen, also known as JANNEPAINT, is a full time artist who has been snapping photographs for over fifteen years. Like many light painters his discovery of the medium was an accident. In early 2007, Janne was out at night capturing long exposure photographs and accidentally bumped his camera, when he looked at his photograph the street lights had left streaks that appeared to be writing in the image; from that point on Janne was a Light Painter. Janne is well known for his light painting figures and recently he has been producing some amazing skeleton imagery. His favorite things about light painting are the urban exploration and the constant source of inspiration that it provides him. Janne is not only a talented light painter he is also an accomplished oil painter. He creates color painting on glass that are incredible!

My parts: what I find interesting about his works is the settings that he places them in and how his photoghraphy looks so paranormal in natuer.

The use of colour and shape in his light sculptores are interesting in how there placed within an environment and how each one has its own almost personallity.

Using this method of light painting I will gather my class mates and others and paint them in a blanket of light using my light painters.

This is to create a interesting style of light painting and to test out the effects of this prosess.
