Abstract photography involves capturing a subject in a way that renders it either partially or completely unrecognizable, emphasizing instead on the interplay of shapes, colors, and form.

In this workshop, we will explore the art of creating striking and thought-provoking images through the use of abstraction.

Our experienced instructor will guide you through the process of understanding and applying the principles of abstract photography, including composition, color, and texture. We will cover topics such as finding inspiration in everyday objects, experimenting with different angles and perspectives.

Columbus Photography Group
David Monseur
People, cafes, vendors, street merchants, buskers, historic buildings, art installations and much more. The power of observation underpins the art of great street photography. Learning to "see" interesting detail is a practised skill and we introduce you to easy methods that will open your photographer's eye and expose you to a world that is alive with detail. The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.

We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.

REVIEWS
It was a good introduction to basic watercolor painting concepts. It was close to what I expected. The instructor was very well prepared and informative. The supporting materials were pretty good. I saw something else she had prepared by her own hand and I thought it was very good. I told her this would have been good to share also. Rebecca is very pleasant to learn from. She is open and curious enough to be engaging in a class discussion. More experience will lead to even better classes.

I sketched this particular photo on a plane from Charlotte to Houston, the second of two 5x7 paintings of the Wicked Witch of the West. The stewardess kindly monitored my art and was a huge fan of the movie and what I was doing. This painting is one of a 6 piece theme now completed that will hang in my office. The movie is iconic to many and I wanted to capture key scenes from the movie in watercolor but with this particular one, I just sketched what I would have the witch look like if I wer

Title or Location: Medieval Gathering
This is a fantasy landscape inspired by old world charm. I gave it the title because of the little grouping near the center of interest looks like a medieval camp when you zoom in on it.
