Nature Photography Meetup

Saturday 23 November
Fletcher Avenue - 10am - 2 Hours
Tampa Photography Group
Stephanie Bough
Join this session for tips on how to use your camera settings to creatively capture nature in a visually interesting way. We will be looking at composition, focus, and colour.

Many professional offices and places of business have large prints gracing their wall space of things such as fields of flowers, a butterfly perched on a leaf, and a single dew drop on a rose petal. These beautiful images are all around us in nature. It just takes that special "eye" to not only see it but to capture it in a way that will turn that simple little piece of nature into a beautiful piece of art. We will learn how to use different angles, light and shadows, and settings to make subjects pop.

I have been making art my entire life! I love working with all kinds of mediums but my passion is for watercolor paints. My schooling was in Commercial Arts which focuses on layout and design aesthetics. I was trained in these ways before it was common to use computers but made certain I learned to use digital art software, such as Photoshop and Indesign at an expert level. I love teaching and helping other to learn and grow their skills. I believe anyone can learn painting techniques with the proper investment of time and focus!

Liverpool's Victorian Albert Dock area has seen many sailing ships berthed there during its long history. The colourful flags and ship's livery of this one attracted my attention, and I painted it from a photo later.

Title or Location: Lilly
The beauty of watercolor pigments is that they are very versatile. Some colors are transparent, others are opaque. Some stain, others do not. Some even have granulating properties.?When watercolors are used without too much dilution, they create solid layers of color that completely cover up anything underneath.This piece demonstrates the opaque characteristics of certain pigments. Lilly was painted as a gift for a very fine gentleman who is also my friend.

My two sons both moved to Arizona for work and we missed them so much we immediately began trying to create a path for us to move to the Phoenix area. This painting was an attempt to paint desert themed flora to feel closer to them. We now live in a suburb of Phoenix and love the unique beauty found in the desert!
