Beginners Class DTLV Street Photography

Saturday 01 March
Downtown Las Vegas - 10am - 3 Hours
Las Vegas Photography Group
Matthew Consoli
Start the New Year with a loud click!This will be an opportunity to take out your new kit for a real test-drive! The point of this class is to demystify some of your camera's settings and prime you for a deeper dive into manual settings at a later date!This will be a class that emphasizes storytelling rather than mechanics, but we will cover some of these principles at the same time. Rather than concentrating on landmarks or "interesting people" but capture them if your attention is drawn to them, you will be guided through the process of preserving moments of time that tell a story, make a statement, or share transient moments that would otherwise go unnoticed. It is my ambition that every participant yields at least nine well-composed images that not only support your own individual narrative or message, but are ready for social-sharing as a visual journey.

Title or Location: On my dining room table
I painted this to commemorate an amazing mentor. - my college philosophy professor. This is actually Nietzsche, someone he deeply admired. Since I admired my professor, it seemed fitting to paint this in his memory. He passed away after I graduated, but his impact on my college education stayed with me forever.

Title or Location: I did not take the photo. I believe it is a stock photo. I painted this painting as a study painting hair/fur and grass/sky.
I am meeting with a group of artists using watercolor over zoom. They are mostly in VA, but the leader/teacher is in Midland now. We are taking on a project to paint an EPIC painting larger than we are accustomed to in order to stretch ourselves. We decided on the animal/ outdoor ranch/farm theme. I am very new to watercolor so I welcomed the challenge. Since then I had the nerve to paint my cat and dog. It is an enjoyable experience. I'm on to painting a horse now.
