Workshop - Light Pad with Ann Ingham

The use of a light pad to create works of art using articles from nature

Ann Ingham

I’ve always been fascinated with creating WORKS OF ART using natural forms particularly flowers and leaves.  I’ve found the use of a light pad is just one of the ways to create works of art taken from nature, and it can produce exciting results.   The use of double imaging, post production and the use of our own backgrounds can further enhance the initial image.

Why do I use a light pad??   It enables the use of wonderful backlighting.

The backlighting is best when using transparent materials.   Flowers, leaves, grasses, feathers, butterfly wings, glass, silk, whatever lets light through is gist for the mill.  

We will have a couple of light pads at the meeting, but if you have your own pad do bring it along and we can have some fun.
