Posted by cwroberson under UncategorizedLeave a Comment
Hello Everybody! It has been a great and extremely busy semester for us in the photography area. All of our 8 photography courses are in full swing and some awesome work is being done. I am currently working on figuring out how to put a slide show of our students work into WordPress and on our UALR website, so bear with me.
The new 7 station Advanced Digital Photography Studio is working well and and we received a grant to purchase some Wacom pen tablets (can’t wait to get those dudes in).
Another bit of news from the photo area, we have two of our photo emphasis students, Kari Austin & Sarah Maxim, graduating this semester. I will post more about their shows and work here in the next few days.
The last tidbit of information is to let you all know that the Spring 2010 Photography Course Schedule is now online. So go check it out and sign up for some photo classes. There really is something for everybody, so hope to see everyone in class this spring!

If you are interestd in contemporary portraiture, you must check out the the latest edition of “Purpose” online photography magazine. It does have some funky music. So if you are not into a zen-like experience with your images, go ahead and turn the volume down. http://www.purpose.fr/purpose8.html
