A few snaps from the time that I spent in Germany with my Mother…. Followed by a wonderful photoshoot with a Client, Jennifer…. the day after I got back from a marathon journey across the “Pond”!
Then a change of PACE… ha! To check out some Steeple chasing…
And to cap off the weekend…. a bit of a walk in the “Park” – South Mountain Park to be precise….
And a few snaps of OLD bits and PIECES along the way home….
Since returning from California I have been SUPER busy! … designing a brand new website for PhotoPaintWorks Dot Com which I am hosting together with Karen Burns – it features our Online Store with Textures and Brushes for Corel Painter as well as loads of information regarding our various “Excursion Workshops” and our brand NEW ONLINE workshop for Corel Painter 2015 – called Digital Paint Works , which starts on April 2nd, 2015! If you love Digital Painting and you use Corel Painter then this is the Class for you! In the next breath I have jumped – or will be jumping – across the “Pond” to the UK to work with Joan Blease at Cre8ting Images where next week we will be hosting 2 Creative Costumed Location Photoshoots and 2 Post Processing in Photoshop Workshops. The better part of the last few days has seen me creating presentations for those events and getting material ready for teaching…. I’m super excited! I daresay I will keep you posted as and when I can…. there will be a lot going on in the next few weeks but towards the end, a little R&R in Germany with my Mother and the “Dawg!” will lend itself to catch up time ………So be prepared for Mosel River images, vineyards, toadstools and beer, along with Downtown Abbey styled fashion and faboulousness! It might even be warm in Charlotte by the time I get back….. one can hope!
I’m so excited to announce that I am going to be teaching at Art Unraveled in Phoenix, AZ this coming August… August 4th will be Getting Your Camera Off Auto – learning to move from point and shoot mode to actually making your camera take those great shots you have in mind. August 5th will be Fabulous Photoshop – where we will take the mystery out of layers and layer masks and learn how to create some amazing digital collages. August 6th will be Beautiful Black and Whites – creating timeless and wonderful Black and White images…AND recreate that beautiful sepia vintage feel for your photos. Full workshop explanation and details are available on the Art Unraveled website. Well I’ve just returned to the chilly/snowy Carolinas after nearly two weeks away in SUNNY California – teaching Photography and Digital Painting worshops with Karen Burns and what a wonderful time we have had. The weather co-operated beautifully and we had several days of out and about photography, sharing camera experiences with our students and helping them make the most of their shots…. lots of learning with long exposure photography and landscape images which we then had the chance to paint digitally in Corel Painter and Photoshop. Despite being “en-pointe”, my camera still managed to capture a few magical moments …. Our thanks go out to all our Fabulous Students…. you were a great group and we look forward to working with some of you again very soon at Donner Lake or in France – or even both! We have a few spots available in both excursion workshops!
