"Grab all of the artistic elements with both hands and pose!"

Carl will share his philosophies of artistic portraiture, what he looks for and what
thought-process he goes through when creating an image.

This is a program designed to stimulate, energize, and stretch your imagination. Carl will share his views on such topics as: composition, lighting, color harmony, and more. He will show: how depth is created; where and how to look for light; how to make portraits believable and interesting; how to choose the correct background and how to use it; how to use emotion to enhance an image; and how all of these pieces work together to create an artistic image.

This class is for all levels of portraiture. This is a chance to learn for the first time, to hone our skills, or to reach beyond where we've been before. Yes. This is an intense class. All who dare to partake will look at our artistic world in a new way.
