Laurel Anderson (@ayearinamerica) is a new member

Laurel Anderson (@ayearinamerica) is a new member of CPAC and will be exhibiting in our 2022 Annual Members' Show, which opens in two weeks! ⁠
⁠
This photograph is from her series "Schrodinger's Cat," a project that emerged from the time she was forced to evacuate her home for over three weeks due to wildfires. ⁠
⁠
"I explore the surreal duality of those days, when my mind was forced to bend in unnatural ways, blending mundane details of everyday life with the devastating drama of the moment, tender feelings of hope with the crushing weight of loss, and magical thinking with sobering truths."⁠
⁠
To preview more of the exhibit use the link in our bio. ⁠
⁠
Opening Reception is July 9th!⁠

Our first week of teen workshops kicked off with great success! ⁠
⁠
Instructor Frank Varney taught skills in basic digital camera operation, composition techniques, and how to use natural light to create a compelling photograph.⁠ And much thanks to @sony for donating digital cameras for our students to use.⁠
⁠
These young photographers went out into downtown Denver every day and captured some of the images you see here. ⁠What an impressive group, right?!? ⁠
⁠
We still have spaces in our teen workshops this summer. Explore more using the link in our bio.⁠

Eric Hagemann (@solsticephoto) is currently working to photograph the Eastern Plains of Colorado. He will be sharing his project-in-progress at our in-person Print Share for July's PhotoVox. ⁠
⁠
Eric's goal is to create photographs that inspire and cause the viewer to wonder. "By blending light and shadow with the element of time, the simple camera can isolate and frame experiences and views not readily appreciated with the human eye." ⁠
⁠
This PhotoVox is a great opportunity to network with local photographers as you see what they are working on, offer insight, and maybe even walk away with some creative ideas for your own art. ⁠
