the Essence" |

|
** Planned workshop schedule ** |
||
|
WE PROMISE: you will be exhausted, exhilarated, and inspired to go home and paint after this event! You will obtain fabulous reference material that can't be gotten any other way, and you will have the benefit of one-on-one and group time with Julie for critique and discussion. Come and join us for this unique event in the beautiful Rocky Mountains! |
||
| * group events in the afternoon and evening will be held at the new Triple D conference room! |
||
| Wednesday 2/13/08 | 6 PM - 8 PM | Check in at the Triple D office or cabin. We will introduce ourselves and go over any final details and questions. |
| Thursday 2/14/08 | ~7:00 AM | Meet
at the Triple D office and head to the day's location. We will be driving
some distance out of Kalispell to shoot a colorful herd of horses and their
wranglers in a scenic valley setting. The shoot and driving will take much of the day; we will get started on critiques and sketching in the afternoon after our return to Triple D, if time permits. |
| 5:30 PM - | Dinner, either as a group or separately (this will be our dinner format) | |
| Friday 2/15/08 | ~7:30 AM | We'll meet at Triple D and take a short drive to the morning's shooting location for today's wildlife. Once we're done, we'll stop for coffee to warm up on our way back to the Triple D conference room, then begin the day's sketches and critiques. |
| Noon - 5:30 PM | After a break for lunch, it's back to the conference room to continue our sketches, our critiques, and our in-depth drawing/painting progression. | |
| Saturday 6/28/08 | similar to Friday's schedule | |
| Sunday 6/29/08 | similar to Friday's schedule | |
| BEFOREHAND: | Please
be thoroughly familiar with your camera
and how best to use its settings. Shooting animals - even captive ones in a
controlled setting - can be challenging and require fast responses from both
you and your camera. If any of the following describe you:
....then I strongly urge you to read a basic
book on digital photography, such as Scott Kelby's The Digital
Photography Book (only $12 at Amazon), before coming to the workshop. If
you don't, you may wonder why your black bear becomes gray in your
photographs, or why your fox-in-snow photographs are so poorly exposed - so
take a little time to learn about photography before attending the workshop. |
