Step Up Your Creativity: Unusual artistic techniques to create and enhance your images

Presenters: Betsy and Jim Wilson

Join Betsy and Jim Wilson as we experiment creating unique textures by "melting" National Geographic magazines.  As colorful inks dissolve, new and unusual textures are born that can then be incorporated in your photographs for a special artistic look.  And you will have the opportunity to try out Scanography - using a flatbed scanner to create artfully arranged super high-resolution images.  The workshop will include some basic photoshop instruction on using layers, which will enable you to blend textures with images you already have, or with images created using scanography. All participants will leave with some newly created texture pages, and a National Geographic magazine that can be used at home to create even more.

Registration is required, space limited to 25 attendees.  Click below for registration form.

Registration is free for CCCC members, $15 per person for non-members.

Rain date - Sunday, Oct 4.
