Often, I would paint from a photograph, or from a magazine layout. Photography has taught me to see shapes. Before, I only saw a pretty flower. Now, I see shadows and things behind the flower that form a special shape. A macro lens allows me to photograph the things most people never see.

We shot photos in the early morning and in the early afternoon. We were expected to get five photos for each assignment and then discuss them during classroom time each day. There were people from all over the country and all walks of life. I learned a tremendous amount. We learned from each other as well as the instructors.
