This past fall I had the opportunity to mentor seven local high school girls.
We worked on shooting, camera handling, critiquing and delved in to what inspired us as artists to create.
At the end of the 10 weeks they publicly displayed their work at The Art Spot in Ridgefield.
The girls received overwhelming praises by all that attended, and some even sold peices of their work.
They learned all of the aspects that go into hanging a show, from choosing a subject to sequencing their photos to exploring framing and hanging possiblilities.
All in all it was a great show with around 150 people in attendance.
