Crystal Art by Dr. Jim Frazier
Oscar and Emmy award winning wildlife filmmaker, Jim Frazier, discovered this incredible art form 35 years ago. Since then he has developed a highly sophisticated series of techniques that produce these paintings. Natural crystals are dissolved into a liquid solution, which is then brushed onto a glass plate. As the solution dries out, the crystals start to grow and develop and it is during this growing stage that the ‘potential’ for producing an image is realized. With the use of sound tones, energy fields, fine brushes, specially designed tools, jets of air and small gas flames it is possible to alter the crystals regular growth patterns and direct them to produce an amazing array of different forms. Jim’s techniques produce unusually large crystal formations that can be manipulated to form a variety of other worldly images that are beautiful and intriguing. Alien landscapes and creatures with appealing eyes and a vast array of never before seen plant like structures. The next part of the process is the coloration and photographic process. At this stage the finished crystal paintings are silver/white in color. By adding several back-lights with an unlimited choice of interchangeable color filters, any color or color combination can be selected before finally triggering the shutter of a large format camera to secures these unique art images for all time. “It is a matter of working creatively but hand in hand with nature, to produce the end result that is limited only by the imagination. With all the permutations of the various techniques involved in producing each image, it is impossible to create the same crystal painting twice” - Jim Frazier 2013
