This is a special two-part workshop for visual artists that will help you photograph your art and then submit digital images to juried shows.
Part one, UNDERSTANDING PHOTOGRAPHING ART, is a visual presentation and discussion covering how to evaluate photographs of your (and others') artworks, and how to improve your own photography of your works. Topics include: your digital camera's advantages and limitations, lighting and camera techniques for painting and sculpture, parameters for evaluating photo quality.
Part two, BASIC DIGITAL SKILLS FOR ARTISTS, done in a similar presentation / discussion format, introduces useful digital manipulation concepts to artists who choose to submit their work digitally to juried exhibitions and competitions. Topics include: sizing and formatting files, calibrating your monitor for accuracy and preparing files for exhibition submission specifications.
