Digitizing Your Art
The Artists Guide to Digital Imaging
The digital image IS the artists best friend, opening doors that were not available before. Many artists, however, see it as a complicated process and are scared to approach it. This seminar will break down all the barriers and simplify the process. It can be as creative as making your art. From how to purchase the right digital camera - the difference between basic and SLR cameras - to what pixels are and the different formats - jpeg's, gif's, tiff's etc. - you will get a basic overview of digital photography and leave wanting to experiment and know even more. Melissa Wolf, presenter, will also tell you where to get more information and give a basic demonstration of Photoshop.

How to Please the Curator
A Framing Seminar
Did you know that you can be rejected from an exhibition because of the way your work is framed or presented? Even though you've been accepted to an exhibition (paid the entry and other fees) you can be turned away at the door if your work is not framed properly. A good frame will protect and enhance your work. It is not expensive, and it's not complicated. Melissa Wolf, Artists Career Coach, will give you tips that only professional framers know about and tell you how to choose a frame and a mat. You will walk away from this seminar knowing exactly how to present yourself at the door of every exhibition you enter. Reading a prospectus will also be addressed, what to look for and what to watch out for.
