Looking for ways to integrate your photography into your other forms of artwork? Bring your photos and we'll spend the day hands on altering our photos in fun and exciting ways using paints, drawing materials, stains, mark-making tools and even a needle and thread!
We'll explore the differences between altering photos we print on our home computers vs. photos printed commercially on specialty machines. Embellishing and altering photos can add a whole other dimension to your images. The more photos you bring, the more you can alter! Finished photos are perfect for use in collage work, scrapbooks, art journals or can even be featured on their own. Bring alonng your art journal or a couple of surfaces to mount your photos on such as a canvas panel or consider repurposing something in your home or studio,
Student Materials List:
- between 6-10 color or b&w photos (any size)consider bold compositions. Please note that these prints need to be processed on a photo developing machine. Beware of photo kiosks as some use photo paper that you cannot alter. I have had great results with kodakgallery.com, snapfish.com, walgrens.com and cvs.com.
