Objective:

This 8-week online workshop is an experiential, photographer-focused adaptation of Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way. Participants will be guided through weekly readings, in-class creative exercises, and between-session assignments that expand their approach to photography and creative exploration.

Course Description:

Designed for artists at any stage, the workshop blends discussion, writing, and image-making with weekly themes that invite deeper sensory engagement to help photographers work in new ways. This is not a technical class, but a creative reset and recalibration for those looking to grow, stretch, and move into the next phase of their practice. While the course is primarily online, optional in-person sessions may be offered for hands-on creative work at CPAC or at the instructor’s studio in Globeville.

TOPICS COVERED

Topics Covered:

  • Weekly creative exercises designed to activate the senses and shift perspective
  • Tools and practices from The Artist’s Way, adapted for photographers
  • Exploration of internal dialogue, resistance, and intuition through writing and image-making
  • Assignments that stretch photographic practice beyond the technical or literal
  • Building a sustainable, personal creative practice supported by group connection

Materials Needed:

  • Students will purchase a copy of The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron (any edition is fine)
  • A digital or film camera (any type)
  • A computer with internet access for Zoom sessions Basic photo viewing software such as Lightroom, Bridge, Photo Mechanic, or another method for organizing and viewing images
