Thanks for a Fun and Successful Workshop

Last Saturday's workshop allowed us to give a lot of hands-on instruction, and the results were very good. Attendees learned how to use their cameras on examples of their art - and how to edit and prepare it for submission to contests.

A big problem that artists – who are not photographers – have is how to crop, white balance and export the photograph of their art.  A few are able to use Photoshop or Lightroom, but for those who are not, we made a short How To video using a free program, Picasa.

The video is below and thanks again to everyone in the workshop.

 

Photographing Art for Submission Class Now Registering

Success in entering art competitions is dependent upon making a good first impression with the quality of the digital photographic file you submit to represent your artwork.

This workshop is designed to provide you with simple and economical methods of photographing two and three-dimensional artwork for its best presentation to jurors. Because badly prepared digital files are likely disqualified and never seen by jurors, you will also learn to properly prepare and submit/upload your digital files according to contest entry specifications.

Location: Gallery Main Street, 110 West Erwin Tyler TX (Tyler Downtown Square)
 Time: 9:00AM-4:00PM
