One of the most basic tenets of composition is the Rule of Thirds. Although most people are familiar with this technique it is often forgotten in the haste to take a photo. However you ignore it at your peril as it can make an average snap into something which is has tension and dynamism.

In this meetup we will practice using the Rule of Thirds in a setting full of photographic possibility.

Title or Location: Charlie
Charlie is a memorial portrait I painted for a neighbor of mine as a commission. The painting is 11?x14? on 300 lb. Watercolor paper. I painted him using Michael Harding watercolors. A fun fact would be that I use no black in my paintings. This black color was achieved by mixing and layering burnt sienna and ultramarine blue. I love doing these portraits especially memorial portraits because they bring so much comfort to the owner.

Title or Location: Quiet Grace
I met her on a busy February afternoon at Busch Gardens in Tampa ? a day full of noise, rides, crowds, and motion.In the middle of it all, she felt like a quiet island of grace.Back home, I kept returning to that photo. There was something in the way she held herself ? strength wrapped in calm, maybe even acceptance.I wanted to hold on to that moment.
