Greetings, You have just stepped foot inside a wonderful world of visual possibilities. I am bringing to the table many of the best and most unique aspects of what I have learned, and what I love, about photographic artwork. Ive taken care to design my offerings around techniques, and ways of approach that I believe you are unlikely to find elsewhere or online. Every topic is the distillation of my experience, packaged for you to take to nourish your own creative endeavors. After 27 years of exploring life through the lens, the gifts only multiply. I feel that to share what Ive learned, in addition to the images, is the most natural way of expressing my gratitude. So, come. Enjoy an inspiring day devoted to your art. Small group sessions insure each of you a very personal, focused learning opportunity. The studio is just a few minutes drive from the village of Ganges, and short walk from lake St. Mary. It is a bright, quiet, spacious cabin in the trees, perfect for relaxed, creative gatherings. It is my sincere pleasure to offer these workshops, and I believe this little studio, on this special island, just might be one of the loveliest places on the planet.
I have the world's largest collection of seashells. I keep it on all the beaches of the world... perhaps you've seen it. Steven Wright.

There is at the back of every artists mind something like a pattern ond a type of architectureIt is a thing like the landscape of his dreams; the sort of world he would like to make or in which he would like to wander, the strange flora and fauna, his own secret planet- G.K. Chesterton
