Zoom Meeting – Mark Battista
Mark Battista, a nationally recognized Fine Art Photographer and Painter, will discuss the “Art of Still Life Photography” and share his approach to creating images that tell a story, communicate an idea, and express a mood. Through this workshop, you will be inspired to create impactful still-life imagery through the use of simple tools such as natural light, single light flashes, and constant light. Emphasis will be placed on how to modify light and use directional light to create drama.
Our Zoom meetings open at 6:30 pm for a social time before the presentation. Visitors are always welcome.
