Born in post-war Germany Schmidt came to NZ in the 1990's. Here he completed a Diploma in Visual Arts and Design and devoted himself to his painting. Unique aspects of Schmidt's work are his use of mediums to build the paintings up from the canvas, and the use of sand collected from the area that the paintings describe, giving the works a strong three dimensional quality. Together with his strong draftsmanship, these unique aspects create some original, outstanding and dramatic views of the New Zealand landscape. Jochen has exhibited throughout NZ, Sydney, Kenya and Germany.
