“From the beginning, over 15,000 years ago on the cave walls of Lascaux, concept and composition have always been the bedrock foundations for visual art.

From Greek and Roman artists, to artists from the Renaissance like DaVinci and Michelangelo, to contemporary artists whose work commands millions, certain principles (tools not rules) of composition have evolved. The creative use of those principles produce strong, compelling images, compared to those that are static and uninspiring, referred to by Dorothea Lange as “one lookers”.

As photographers-the new kids on the art block- you will learn to apply these time proven techniques of concept and composition from the masters. You will learn what these tools are, how they work, and why they have worked for millenniums.”
