Schultz became a highly respected artist who exhibited over one hundred works at the Art Institute of Chicago annuals, between 1889 and 1925.

Schultz spent part of 1895 on Monhegan Island, which artists had discovered in 1858. An exhibition of Schultz's watercolors of Monhegan scenery at Thurber's Gallery in Chicago in 1896 was reviewed in Arts for America. The author was particularly moved by "a huge, strongly painted rock enveloped in fog, called Solitude." Schultz, he stated, "paints with a firm, true hand and [has] a feeling for color that is delightful."

In April of 1898, Schultz exhibited oils at Thurber's Gallery. The reviewer in Chicago Inter-Ocean admired his "delicate, loose and pleasing" touch. One work from that show, entitled Reflections, appeared in the March issue of Brush and Pencil. less
