What happens when an artist combines honed techniques with a powerful release of emotion? Artist Reagan Schmissrauter has built a diverse portfolio that serves as the answer. His artistic vision is rooted in a philosophical understanding of art as an intrinsic part of humanity. He sees it as a reflection of civilization itself, a way to capture the beauty and complexities of existence.


The seeds of Schmissrauter’s artistic journey were sown in his childhood, inspired by his brother and mother. He began drawing as a toddler and has pursued this passion ever since. His formal training began in high school, and he later graduated from Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts. Throughout his education, he was profoundly influenced by master artists such as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent van Gogh, and Mary Cassatt.

Primarily working with oil paints, pastels, charcoal, and Conte crayons, Schmissrauter’s approach to color is masterful and intense, lending a surreal, dreamlike quality to his work. When painting with oils, he employs a technique that begins with direct brush drawing to establish patterns of light, dark, and value. His subjects are drawn from personal passions, each rendered in rich, bright colors. Schmissrauter also integrates his study of poetry and sacred geometry into his art which further demonstrates his commitment to both technical precision and artistic expression.

By intertwining rich colors, intricate details, and powerful themes, Reagan Schmissrauter engages in a broader conversation with his audience about the importance of creative interpretation in our shared human experience.
