Nature is Poetic
Sometimes the beauty of nature can be captured through photography and in the simple words of a haiku. In this course, we will experience nature through photography, mixed media and the art of writing haikus.
You will take a self-guided field trip outdoors in nature, whether it’s to a local park, botanical garden or a hike. While on your field trip, you will capture details (close up shots) of your experience by photographing nature.
Then we’ll begin putting together a handmade book that looks organic and vintage. In this course, you will also learn how to create simple haikus to incorporate into your small books.
Use Your Own Photography
In this course, I will also walk you through the photographing process, what to look for in terms of subject, lighting and composition. I will also take you step-by-step on how to alter your photographs to black & white as well as adjust contrast and brightness to prepare for printing. You will have the opportunity to create multiple little books.
