Zachary Schomburg Art

American, b. 1977
Zachary Schomburg is a painter and poet based in Portland, Oregon. Working primarily with acrylics, he draws inspiration from the vibrant energy and dynamic compositions of artists like Helen Frankenthaler and Etel Adnan. For Schomburg, painting is an act of letting go—an ongoing practice of embracing surprise and listening to the paint itself. In addition to his visual art, Schomburg is a poet and the author of six books of poems, a novel, and the founder of an independent poetry press. His creative practice spans both mediums, with a deep commitment to storytelling through both words and imagery. Born in Omaha, Nebraska, and raised in Iowa. He earned a BA from the College of the Ozarks and a PhD in creative writing from the University of Nebraska. His books of poetry include Pulver Maar (2019), The Book of Joshua (2014), Fjords vol 1 (2012), Scary, No Scary (2009), and The Man Suit (2007). Schomburg lives in Portland with his partner and their child, where he continues to explore the connections between language, art, and the natural world around him.
