This special workshop is beginning on Wednesday, May 15th, with a Welcome Gathering at the Union Fish Room at the Cannery Pier Hotel in Astoria. The following four days will be an intensive field session based on Art’s comprehensive photography curriculum that he has been honing for years. Art’s goal is work closely with each participant to really transform and refine their skills. An image can have the power to stimulate the imagination and the intellect while also telling a story that awakens the senses. Art’s challenge is to explore the nature of creativity itself and discover ways to bring its power to your images.
