DISCOVERING THE COLOR MOMENT!

Texas is noted for it's beautiful and diverse Hill Country.... the towns, the people, the architecture, the landscape, the events, etc. Here's a chance to view this unique area photographically while strengthening your ability to see and work in color. The night before the workshop, all will meet at the Alpha & Omega Photography Gallery for a Meet & Greet Mixer. The next day the workshop begins with a review of each photographer’s images and a discussion of personal and career goals. In addition to addressing the aesthetics of the color moment, Arthur leads group critiques and spends individual time with each participant. He guides participants in applying their unique vision of the world to develop and refine an individual style for creative fulfillment and professional success. Assignments in the field will put classroom techniques into practice and allow us to take advantage of the stunning light and color of the Texas Hill Country as we visit several popular towns, like Gruene, Wimberley, Fredricksburg, etc. Participants leave at the end of the week with a greater awareness of their personal vision, strengths, weaknesses, and an enhanced sensitivity in capturing "the color moment". This amazing 5 day workshop is led by internationally acclaimed photographer, Arthur Meyerson. As this is only the second time Meyerson has offered this workshop in central Texas with TPW, seats are very limited… so hurry and sign up.
