Photo Art : Altered Imagery Workshop

Learn to create unique artwork with your photographs.

Workshop with Heidi Rand. Learn a wide variety of techniques and programs to transform your photographs into unique art that you're proud of, that you can print and frame -- for yourself, for gifts, or to sell.

If you're ready to take the next steps with your photos, to stretch your creativity and artistic imagination, I've got just the workshop for you. We'll explore how to enhance your original photos to achieve unique and artistic effects using Adobe Photoshop Elements. Elements is a very powerful, but affordable, image processing program.  The techniques that I teach can also be accomplished with other programs, and we'll discuss them as well, including GIMP, a free image processing program.

Space is limited, and we'll work on your images at the workshop, so pre-registration is required. For more information or to pre-register, email me at heidirand@gmail.com. If you can't make the workshop, email me for other options, including private classes, books, and ebooks.  And here's a list of my other art and craft workshops.
