Introduction to Photoshop (Get the Red Eye Out)

Do you want to know how to get the red-eye out of your holiday photos,
how to isolate the main subject in the photo, or remove unwanted or distracting
elements? In this Photoshop class, you'll learn to take your photography to
a new level. Photoshop can be confusing. Just finding the right tool can be
tough. This class covers all the basic adjustments and tweaks you will want to
apply to your photos, and shows you where to find the tools and what the settings
mean—all in plain English. A must for photo enthusiasts who want to give their
photos a little more punch, as well as scrap-bookers who want to add some flair
to their photos.

Note that this class will be lecture/demo style, rather than you working at the
computer. You will want to bring pen and notebook to take notes. If you do
have Photoshop loaded on your laptop, you are welcome to bring that along
and "copy" the instructor as he demos the various Photoshop techniques.

Those enrolled in the class can send the instructor a photo in advance that they
want fixed up, to be used as some of the examples during class. If a photo is
selected for retouching, you'll get to keep the retouched photo.

Date: Monday, November 30th

Time: 7:00 - 9:00 pm

Instructor: Steven Anthony

Cost: $24 for two hours

About the instructor: Steven Anthony has been making photographs for over
30 years. He owns Uptown Photography (www.uptownphoto.biz) and is

rent time to work independently on these computers for $6 per hour. Also,
instructor Steven Anthony offers private tutoring sessions in Photoshop,
at your home, his office, or at the Studio, for $25 per hour.

KIDS "DROP & SHOP" ART CLASSES- FLOWERS and/or HORSES

Drop your kids off for some fun, creative art activities, while you hit the
after-Thanksgiving day sales! We are offering two different classes
back-to-back, and you may select one or both of them.

The class from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. has as a theme "Flower Art". Your kids
will first learn to draw flowers (approx. one hour) and then they will make pretty
petals to incorporate into their work. Do you remember pretty petals from your
childhood...those wire pieces shaped into flowers and dipped into a colored
plastic solution to fill in the spaces in the wire?

The class from 10:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. will have a horse theme. They will spend
an hour learning to draw a horse head (sample shown above) complete with intricate
shading techniques. They will spend the second hour making a necklace or other
jewelry piece that incorporates a horse charm with beads and leather cord.

The art work will be done with soft pastel chalks and colored pencils, and mounted
on an 11" x 13" cardboard frame, ready to bring home.

Date: Friday, November 27th

Cost for one two hour session: $24 (includes materials)

Cost for both two hour sessions: $42 ($6 savings!) Kids who are signed up for
both will receive apple cider and a small snack in between classes.

When you call to register, please specify ages. We believe these sessions would be
appropriate for ages 8 (or mature 7), up to around age 14.

Oil Pastels with Andrea Altman - People and Pets

(Also Holiday Cards)

Learn about the exciting painting medium of oil pastels. The class is designed for
all levels. The instructor will share samples of her work and demonstrate various
techniques and approaches to creating a successful oil pastel painting.

Normally this class is structured as a landscape painting class, but for the November
class, you will receive instruction on painting people and pets. Your personal choice
of subject matter is welcome, so bring photos or other visuals. The instructor will
end with a short discussion on the proper care and framing of finished oil pastels.

Alternatively, Andrea can help you create a winter scene for a holiday card. Bring an
idea or appropriate photo. If you would like your finished painting to be scanned and
reproduced for cards, the Studio's costs are: scanning and manipulating for card
printing ($5) and printing on the wax printer for a glossy finish (75 cents per 8-1/2" x 11" sheet).

Instructor Andrea Altman , an award winning artist, has sold her work at local and
national galleries and juried art shows. If you have any questions for the instructor,
