Jessica Barnd Bauer paints storms.

During, before, or after a thunderstorm, she hikes out into the countryside behind the home where she grew up and studio where she works in Sand Creek Township to get photographs.

Bauer’s out shooting photos on top of the hill, “probably when I shouldn’t be,” she said.

Then, back at River Bottom Studio, she translates her photographs to canvas, by painting with a brush in each hand or sometimes just with her fingers.
