Finding the Personal in the Landscape Workshop
May 23 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
This workshop looks at a landscape and how to find something personal within the vista. The translation of this it how to come up with a creative design. The workshop will focus on ideas of how to find and compose images that help separate out the subject from the background, the power of using nonlocal colors, finding patterns and repetition and examples of how artists from history have found the personal in what they have created.
Tuition: Members: $69/Non-Members: $94
