Bill Perzeski has a memory.

A quiet mountain rises beyond a calm lake, framed by dense evergreens and touches of autumn color. The soft, misty sky and reflected landscape give the painting a peaceful, almost untouched feeling.

Another one from the Jade days. 

Another one of my landscape paintings. Just a calm little scene with water, trees, and enough peace and quiet to make real life look like it needs to settle down a bit.

Another one of my mountain paintings.

Another mountain scene. Apparently I’m not done painting places where there are no passwords, traffic, or people asking me to download an app.

Found this old Gaither Vocal Band version of the National Anthem. No tricks, no overdoing it—just five guys who can actually sing.

Sarah at graduation. One of those days where you realize they actually grew up while you were busy worrying about everything else.

One more from the Jade days. This time there’s an actual crowd, so apparently we really were a band and not just six guys taking pictures in the woods.

Another Jade photo, this time looking a little less like a band picture and more like everybody got caught between unloading equipment and figuring out what happened next.

Another old Jade photo from a different time. Same band, different lineup, and enough 1970s clothing to settle the question of when this was taken.

Found this buried on my Facebook profile. I’m not sure what we thought we were doing out in the woods, but apparently standing on a fallen tree made us look official.

One of my dad’s Cleveland photographs. The bridge lights, the reflections on the water, and the empty night give it a calm look that Cleveland does not always get credit for.

One of my recent paintings. Mountains, trees, water—basically my attempt at painting somewhere quieter than real life.

I’m Bill. I live in Bedford, Ohio, and I usually have a few different things going on at the same time.

I like painting, old family photos, local history, building things online, and finding interesting stuff that sends me down a rabbit hole.

This space is really just a place for the personal side of things—photos, memories, artwork, projects, things I find interesting, and whatever else seems worth sharing.

Nothing too formal. Just my corner of Trejji.
