The Workshop

Jack Spencer has gained a reputation as one of the premier fine art photographers working today. His unique approach to making art is unparalleled and the wide range of his works is quite compelling. He has had over 100 solo exhibitions is some of the world's finest galleries and museums. His work has been collected in a great many private and museum collections worldwide. 

In this workshop, Spencer will teach some of his techniques and methods of achieving photographs that have verve, poetry and the transference of creativity to paper. From the initial approach of taking a photograph, which Spencer considers to be the most important element of making an image, to making texture layers and coloring and also printing, glazing techniques and varnishing. There will be an emphasis on model photography, portraiture, landscape and flowers.

Jack would like to emphasize that he has no desire to turn others into versions of himself but to try and bring out the true artist that resides within each individual and their own means of self expression. He has no interest in being dogmatic in his lessons. To help students along in finding their own particular vision is his primary purpose.

Requirements:

Students are asked to bring along a laptop, preferably with Photoshop and Lightroom as well as a digital camera and a small hard drive as well as a good supply of cards and readers. All lab materials and models are included in the tuition. 

Jack will be assisted by Jon Morgan, a Nashville photographer and artist of considerable skill.

Southern Memories: Part Two

Reposted from The Barefoot Photographer Blog

About a year ago I wrote a blog about Southern Memories: Part One. Now I am knee deep in preparations for Southern Memories: Part Two. Part One was about places -- indoors and out. Southern Memories Part Two: The People is the second exhibition curated by John A. Bennette at The Whiskey Bonding Barn in Molena, Georgia as a part of SlowExposures 2011. The show will consist of a selection of portraits taken in the region by local and national artists. The community will also be invited to participate in this exhibition with a wall of historical images and snapshots provided by members of the community, with their notes and stories about life in the area and their families.

I am inviting all who read this blog -- if you live in the south -- to contribute to the wall of images. Please make an inexpensive copy of any old family photo. You may simply place a photo in a copy machine and create a copy for this show. I printed one on plain printer paper from a digital file. On the piece of paper you copy or print on, please write who is in the photo, where it was taken, and any other information about the family or photo. If you live in the area -- please drop off these family memories at A Novel Experience in Zebulon. If you do not live in the area -- email me for instructions on how to mail it in.

For a long time I have been restoring old family photos using Photoshop Elements -- this blog post showing the changes to a photo of my great grandfather is a good example of an old family portrait and what may be needed to help preserve it for future generations. I have given talks at The National Archives Southeast on this subject. The old photos I have are safely stored in protective sleeves in archival albums. The only old photos I use for display purposes are copies that I printed out myself. The digital files are also safe -- in case I, or someone else, would like a copy. As many long time readers know -- my Christmas tree is decorated with old family photos -- portraits of family and old homeplaces. I am hoping to put together a small handout for this exhibit with tips on how to preserve old photos. Time is precious these days -- I have a lot going on -- more about that on future blogs -- but preserving old family photos is important.

Artists participating in Southern Memories this year are:

Dave Anderson
Paul Conlan
Malgorzata Florkowska
Gary Gruby
Jessica Hines
Sarah Hoskins
Jane Robbins Kerr
Joanna Knox
Kendall Messick
Donna Rosser
Jerry Siegel

New Hebron

New Hebron photo by Nancy McCrary

The Collector’s Afternoon on Friday, September 16th, and the Publishing Your Photography Book Workshop on September 17th will be held at New Hebron Baptist Church, 3 miles outside of Concord, Georgia.

The original Hebron Baptist Church was chartered in 1838. The New Hebron was chartered in 1907 and built in 1908. Its only bond with the modern age is when farm trucks and passenger cars pass by stirring up dust which quickly settles on the whitewashed facade and plain concrete porch and brick steps. It still uses the original hand-crafted pulpit and hand-hewn slat pews.

In its heyday of 1929 New Hebron had 99 members. The last member, Fred H. Johnson, Jr., died in 1998. New Hebron has been featured in two movies, Cold Sassy Tree and Mama Flora’s Family, and a feature film, The Wettest County, just completed filming in this beautiful old structure.

Dwain Penn, the Vicar of New Hebron, holds services every month on the third Sunday at 3 p.m. and has special speakers on alternate months during the year.

Self-Publishing Your Photography Book Workshop with Elizabeth Avedon
Saturday, September 17, 2011

9-3p, with lunch, R.F. Strickland Building, Concord, Georgia

There is a rich history of self-published authors including Edgar Allen Poe, Ernest Hemingway, Stephen King and Mark Twain. Now that artists are able to produce their own hardcover and softcover books online at a relatively low cost, self-publishing has become a popular alternative for photographers.

Self-Publishing Your Photography Book will cover the basic principles of designing your own photography book. Drawing on over thirty years of experience, Elizabeth will demonstrate the bones of a successful photography book including; interior design decisions, sequencing, typography (Serif vs Sans Serif) and cover design. We will explore what comprises good design from bad, creating a framework for the participant to build upon with their own book project, and briefly discuss the self-publishing companies available.

Each participant should bring 10, maximum of 12, related images for sequencing and discussion of design considerations. We will work together and as a group to evolve each of your individual projects and expression. Bring only inexpensive copies we can tack on the wall, no delicate final prints, 12 max and 1 photography book whose design or layout you admire (optional).

We will not cover technical questions (pdf-to-book workflow) or software questions.

Elizabeth Avedon has a rich, thirty-year history in photography and fine art. Collaborating with museums, publishing houses, advertising agencies, galleries and artists, she's received recognition for her curatorial work, exhibition design and publishing projects, including the retrospective exhibition and book, "Avedon: 1949 -1979" for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, and Dallas Museum of Fine Arts; Avedon's, "In the American West", for the Amon Carter Museum, the Corcoran Gallery, and the Art Institute of Chicago, among others. In addition, she has also worked with the Menil Collection and the Estate of Diane Arbus. In conjunction with Random House she co-published the series, "Elizabeth Avedon Editions/Vintage Contemporary Artists", working with distinguished art critics Donald Kuspit, Peter Schjeldahl and artists Eric Fischl, Francesco Clemente, Louise Bourgeois, and Robert Rauschenberg.

Vacation Motor Hotel

Vacation Motor Hotel by David Boyd, Jr. is the 2011 SlowExposures show photo.  David is a SCAD graduate in illustration and art history, painter, photographer, self syndicated editorial cartoonist, middle and upper school art instructor at the Heritage School in Newnan, Georgia.  He is a member of dailypainters.com and Oil Painters of America.  In addition to his regular website, David has a blog about his painting.  

If you are into Googie Art, you seek out these old signs -- relics of the 50s and 60s.  This sign is on an old highway in Clarksville, Tennessee.  The highway -- 41 -- was a popular route but lost favor after the interstate system came to be.  The sign is 3stories tall, two sided, beautifully hand painted, and had a lot of neon lighting it up in its prime.  You can just see the family station wagon on a road trip pulling in to rest for the night.
