Making art and viewing art are different at their core. That’s obvious, but what arrests many practitioners of photography is being conversant and knowing what to think or say when gazing at your favorite medium, let alone other forms of visual art. In this six-week online workshop, you venture together into a realm to understand visual art better and learn how to talk about photographs. This compelling and collaborative space is your critique room. Tap the SFW Logo for the course description, tuition, and other registration info.
