Come and join us as we explore composition in photography.

Composition is one of the most critical element in photography. Composition is how a photographer arranges the visual elements within their image, frame. I promise you that if you search for information on composition you will find plenty You will find formal rules, opinion, some of which you can trace back to historical art movements and painters.

Even in the digital world, composition remains the key to creating strong images. Composition is what guides our eye through an image and gives importance to the subject. It creates the story for the viewer and how we as photographers convey that message.

This meetup will explore composition using our frame and tools available to us as the photographer.

Carolin J.V. Milner
Our neighbor, a retired college art instructor, saw a few of my drawings, and introduced me to oil painting. I was 11 yrs oId. I painted off and on for many years, sometimes selling my work. When our girls were entering high school, I was hired to teach art at a Catholic elementary school. The next year I enrolled at Louisiana State University, and and for 5 years I taught at the school and worked towards my degree in Art with a minor in Education.

I retired from the school after 22 years. I now draw and paint on a variety of surfaces and occasionally sell my work at local craft fairs. (Our youngest grandchild is an amazing cartoonist. I forsee him working for a movie company one day!)

What i love about drawing? It forces me to take a really close look at an object or animal and appreciate the wonders of God's Creation.

Carolin J.V. Milner is available for private bookings

Available most Saturdays from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. , and Wednesday and Thursday evenings.
Available for private or small group tutoring in Drawing in pencil and charcoal; and in oils and/or acrylics.

Title or Location: Sea Cubed collection
I?m passionate about the ocean and lived on it a majority of my life. I would even take my children to observe sea life, in several locations on the coast..Tide pools being one of my favorite! We could observe anemones, sea slugs, starfish and more. Years ago I applied to a school in their Marine Sciences program. I wasn?t accepted because I was a woman!Yeah and that dates me a little. The passion will never die.

This is a carving done in a piece of Alaskan cottonwood bark. The bark is takin from dead and fallen trees. I use only hand tools, knives and gouges.

This image was captured on the Gatlinburg Trail during the Spring. These flowers grow on trees in both pink and white in color. When they bloom, they light up the smoky mountains with blazing color. Having a cabin in the Smokies for Eight years afforded me an opportunity to embrace this magnificent display yearly. Enjoy!

Title or Location: Javan, a tiger in oils
I enjoy painting, nearly any subject, in nearly any medium, but I especially enjoy painting animals. Whether it?s wildlife or pets, they all beg me to paint them! I am self taught when it comes to painting animals. I?ve had instructors that paint beautiful landscapes, still life?s, and amazing portraits of people, but I was never lucky enough to find someone to instruct me to paint animals, so I just struck out on my own. Sometimes that?s what we have to do as an artist- is to go for it! I

Title or Location: Pet Portraits in oils
I really enjoy painting animals. Whether it?s pet portraits or wildlife. I strive to get the animals eyes as alive as they can possibly look. Once I get the eyes like I want them, I feel like everything else comes together.

In 2018, I had a stroke and forgot how to paint in watercolor. Recently I?ve been taking a few classes and reading a lot of how to books. The passing of my niece?s beloved pet, triggered me to try a realistic subject. She loves my painting and I think I did good.
