Photography and Principles of
Art & Design

April 24th - Richard Bernabe - Zoom

In the late 19h Century, artists in Europe attempted to codify visual aesthetics in order to understand why certain works of art appealed to people and others didn’t. The Principles of Art and Design were our first real attempt to do so and they’re still relevant today. For a different look at composition, I will be applying these principles to photography with many photos as examples and diagrams to help see in a new way.

Richard Bernabe is a wildlife, travel, and nature  photographer and widely published author from the United States. Richard was named as one of the "Top 30 Influential Photographers on the Web" by the Huffington Post  and included  in the "20 Photographers Changing the World through Social Media" by  Influence Digest".
