This session will be about using coloured gels or filters to create a slight abstract feel by adding strong colour into your photographs. It will be partly in studio under controlled lighting but will also demonstrate an inexpensive way by using existing natural light with the use of coloured gels and filters.

As a new watercolor artist, I am exploring new methods and techniques. This was my first attempt at Line and Wash. Old doorways in Europe fascinate me. The textures, colors and history are so unique. This doorway was in the Balearic Islands, Spain. Original photo credit: Monica Volpin.

Title or Location: Posies in August
As I was making my way through an unrelated tutorial, I relished these cool colors that seemed to sweep away the August heat. After 4 tries, I was not connecting with the subject in the lesson, so I took a break. I decided to use the colors in my palette to freestyle a little, and in minutes, these flowers were born. I immediately felt their calm. It shows that we all have our own style within us, and that's where we find our art.
