What is visual style? How do you tap into it? Can it be learned? If so, where do
you begin?
The purpose of this workshop is to take a deep look at the creative process and
to learn how to foster your own creative style. Both beginners immersed in the
newly discovered joy of photography and experienced photographers wanting to
recharge their batteries will benefit from this two-plus day workshop.
The workshop will consist of a discussion on finding your visual "voice" through
an exploration of the creative process. Presuming that we are born creative,
how can we nurture this gift? What are some techniques for incorporating the
creative process into everyday life? How does one find one's unique gifts? How
do we keep our creative fires lit for years to come?
You will be asked to bring samples of your work, samples of art that inspires you
(other than your own) and an enthusiastic heart!
