Revisiting The Classic Art of Hand Coloring

Applying the traditional techniques of hand-coloring to contemporary digital photography.

Before there was color film, there were hand-colored and

hand-tinted daguerreotypes and tintypes. Some of these are priceless

treasures today.

Of course, now there are many modern ways to color digital photos using

Photoshop, but the timeless joy of applying color by hand to the surface of

a print is still unmatched by pushing pixels around. This workshop is a

hands-on experience that combines a variety of field shooting assignments

with studio sessions that explore numerous printing techniques, papers,

and mediums such as pencils, oils, watercolors, acrylic and more.

Exercises in composition, tonality, pre-visualization and color palette

are followed by discussions about finishing, mounting and framing.

Saturday & Sunday March 6th & 7th 10-4 $395
