CrankyBuddhist   the learning never ends …

I’ve created a new workshop in The ArtStudio for artists and non-artists alike:

PhotoClub is a new weekly workshop that will be held in the online learning center of artist-at-large.com. Each week on Saturday morning an assignment will be given. Participants then spend the week working on their projects and then post them to the Gallery when they are finished. Informal discussion and critique will take place among participants and group facilitator.

This new workshop is a lighter and less time consuming version of Learning to See, the other photo workshop in The ArtStudio. PhotoClub will be informal, mostly self-motivated, without reading assignments or hard critique. It will be be more about composition and less about technical issues. You can use any kind of camera – from point and shoot to dSLR, or film if you like. It is meant to be a fun workshop that will get your eyes roaming and your brain working (more than it already does!). It can also be used as a great way to get focused, get out of a composition rut, get inspired, or get working again if you’ve been lagging.

This Saturday, May 17, will be the first day. Subscriptions are sold by the month (4 consecutive weeks of workshop) for $20 and are valid for one month from date of purchase. You can start at any time, come and go by the month as you please, just by renewing your subscription, or not.

To sign up, sign in or register at The ArtStudio. Go into My Controls and look in the left sidebar for Options > Purchase Paid Subscriptions.

Photography is a great tool for learning how to see the details around you. This workshop will focus and hone your observation skills.
