Schwiering asserts, “Many people have called me an Impressionist painter. If Impressionism is the study of sunlight then I am an Impressionist. But rather than an Impressionist, I consider myself a mood painter. Painting is not an intellectual matter. Now, the technical knowledge has to be there, but art is a gut process, and there is no substitute for sweat.”
