Description
Artists need high-quality digital images for promotional purposes, as well as for submission to exhibits and other opportunities to display your artwork. This hands-on workshop is designed to teach artists how to create these images, using the tools they have at hand, particularly their cell phone camera and/or point and shoot camera. Following an instructional period on basic principles, participants will have the opportunity to create their own images of their own art under the tutelage of the workshop instructor.
Participants Should Plan to Bring to the Workshop:
- Cell phone or point and shoot camera, and knowledge of how to use that camera.
- One piece of their artwork (either 2- or 3-dimensional) that they plan to photograph.
- For 2-D work, please do not bring framed pieces, just the artwork itself is best.
- Artwork should not exceed 48 inches on the longest side.
Maximum 10 people per session.
