Hello!

Hamiltonian Fellow Linda Hesh is teaching a workshop called:

Digital Images Of Your Artwork -
If you photograph your own artwork but are not always happy with the result, this workshop will teach you how to utilize Adobe Photoshop to improve your images.  You'll learn to color correct, sharpen, even out the lighting, highlight areas, straighten warped lines and more on photographs of paintings, sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, drawings, collage, installations, etc.  Make your images look as good as the real art does even with an inexpensive camera.  You'll learn how to format for show applications and how to make a simple postcard for online printing.  The class is on 2 consecutive sundays so you can experiment during the week in between and then ask questions. Handouts each class will have detailed instructions. Students who sign up early can submit their own photographs to be worked on in the class and will receive the finished product. 

The workshop consists of  2 consecutive Sunday afternoons:
March 22 & 29, 2009, from 11:00am-2:00pm
This workshop is held through the Art League in Old Town Alexandria, and costs $90.

before and after


REMINDER:

Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 4, 2009, at 7:00pm, Mark Cameron Boyd will talk about his work currently on view at the Hamiltonian Gallery
. 

A Hamiltonian Mentor Artist, Boyd is exhibiting work along with Hamiltonian Fellows Christian Benefiel and Leah Frankel.  Boyd will introduce the concepts behind his participatory art practice and use of text on panels that allow visitor interaction with chalk and dry erase marker.  Additionally, Boyd will discuss his Theory Notecards installation that initiates a new twist he calls "owner-specific" participation - only the "buyers of the blocks are authorized to decipher the bisected text." 

Hamiltonian Artists is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing professional development opportunities for creative artists in their early careers. We offer a competitive two-year fellowship program to new, innovative visual artists in all media through an annual competition. Artists from around the nation are encouraged to apply.


All the Best,
