This course is all about finding your inspiration through art. Come spend the morning with a photo shoot inspired by a well known artist as you study the light patterns along with model placement in the image and figure out how to mimic it in the camera room. After everyone has had a chance to photograph the model, this course will then move into Lightroom for initial cropping and color correction. After lunch be ready to take your image into Photoshop CC and learn the basics of painting in Photoshop. During this phase, instructor Valarie Hoffman will provide everyone with an image from the morning session so that all will be working on the same image together.
The afternoon will entail instruction on:
- mixer brush
- what brushes work best and where
- creating a background
- color harmony
The goal of this class is to encourage the photographer to study art for inspiration and how to utilize
Photoshop CC to create a painted image.
