Abstracting Reality with Tony Worobiec
Spellbinding, Insightful and a Standing Ovation. Join the session that had photographers from Brighton to Alberta buzzing with inspiration!!
Are you tired of taking the same literal photographs? Do you want to move beyond simply documenting the world and start creating art?
In this recorded session captured live during a packed Camversation event acclaimed photographer and author Tony Worobiec guides you through the liberating world of Abstract Photography. Whether you are in a scrapyard on a beach or sitting in your own living room Tony proves that abstract art is available everywhere if you know how to look.
What You Will Learn
Tony breaks down his approach to creating non-representational art moving away from subjects and towards visual elements like line, tone, shape, pattern, texture and rhythm.
The Art of Seeing: Learn how to find stunning abstracts in unpromising locations from peeling paint and distressed metal in a skip to the skeleton shapes of sand dunes.
Camera Techniques: Discover why Tony prefers a 100-400mm lens to isolate details the importance of keeping your sensor parallel to the subject and the power of the Square Format to tame chaotic scenes.
Simple Post-Processing Magic: You do not need to be a Photoshop wizard. Tony demonstrates how simple techniques like Inverting/Negatising, Flipping (180°) and using Blending Modes can transform a mundane photo of pipes or ice into a piece of graphic art.
Diverse Subjects: The session covers a huge range of scenarios including:
Water and Ponds: Turning reflections and reeds into Paul Klee style drawings.
Ice: Capturing the metallic 3D quality of frozen puddles.
Landscape: How to spot abstracts in ploughed fields and agricultural cloches.
