Painting with Light consists of images produced by moving light. Techniques include re-filming slides in an animation fashion. Original slides are time-exposure images of color-filtered light. The experiment questions whether light can be controlled in a manner similar to that of the painter-artist. The use of an optical printed allows some manipulation or extension of certain scenes. Also, unmasked negative printing is intercut to strengthen the "painting" effect.
