Architectural photography can be a great way of exploring and documenting a city, whether it's your home or on holiday. Its about capturing not only the design and accurate representation of a building, but to have the shots be aesthetically pleasing to the viewer's eye. An architectural photographer makes pictures, not takes pictures. In this session, we will be covering how to better understand Architecture photography and we'll be looking at ways to take some impressive shots and the camera settings to use.

What I enjoyed the most about the event was the opportunity to meet two talented local artists. It was a casual encounter, which is why the focus was more centered on the artworks of the group members, which wasn't exactly what I had in mind. Engaging in conversations with them about their techniques and concepts was a valuable experience that enriched my understanding of art. We share some time together and did a bit of drawing.

Originally from Chile and now based in the USA, I draw inspiration from my surroundings and use soft washes and vibrant hues to create pieces that evoke emotion and connection. Additionally, I am an experienced educator and am excited to share my love for painting through weekend classes and workshops.

My grandfather started the first ice-cream company in Chicago. Delivering ice-cream to corner drug stores by horse and buggy. I recently visited the area where the factory was and loved the old brick buildings. I thought about all the stories and history that happened in these old structures. Everyone has a different story and background and sees the world distorted with their own backgrounds and understating of the world. Please take a look at this city. What stories unfold? What do you see? I

Title or Location: Art Deco Stef
This piece was created for an art exhibition called "In the Style of." I decided to do a portrait of my daughter-in-law Stefanie in the style of Tamara De Lempicka. Tamara was an incredible Art Deco artist. Some referred to her style as soft cubism. Many are not familiar with her work when you mention her name. If you see her work, you will recognize it. She was a portrait painter that was ahead of her time. There is an upcoming Broadway play about this complex woman in the spring of 2024

I had never really done any portraits in my art. I felts little intimidated by them. Not wanting to make them look weird or disproportionate I then realized that with every person I encountered I was studying their features. I started practicing a few months ago and it came to me pretty quickly. With every portrait I feel more confident. I just had to over come that fear and uncertainty and it just spilled into the paper. I can?t wait to see how much better it can get. I suggest everyone try i

I originally drew George for Chris a few years ago but after he passed more recently, Chris came to me with a photograph which he said meant a lot to him and asked if I could do a drawing of it. It was a bit of a challenge but I did the best I could with it and when I sent an image of my drawing to Chris he first just replied ?there are no words? but he then came back later with:?wish you had known him Alan and in a strange way it?s like you did. You portray my bond with him like no one else c
