Sorry, my previous message was so badly typed. I was traveling and I am not very good with iPhone typing. I knew far in advance that I wanted to take a Keith Carter class and I contacted him directly. His email address is on his web site. The word from his assistant was that he teaches at Santa Fe each year around the 4th of July. So, you might want to consider that time in your plans. It of course may change as his wife is seriously ill. I was amazed he came to our workshop and that he was able to give us so much of his energy considering what is going on in his personal life. He works very hard to meet the needs of the students and to push you. He had lots of info on how to work and get over your stumbling blocks. He wants you to pick projects and work on them, not at the workshop, but when you go back home. I have much to put into practice. We had a full group (15 students). I suspect his class fills to the max each year. There was a waiting list.

I took the Black and White Master Print class at SFPW a couple years ago with George DeWolfe. It completely changed my world. He is an amazing instructor, the facility was wonderful and the people in the class were just a blast; as you say, very stimulating. I learned things I don't believe I would have learned no matter how much reading and practicing I did. I hope, hope, hope Keith comes back and I hope when he does my schedule allows me to attend. When I was in Santa Fe for the bw print class Eye One hosted the opening of the show A Shadow Falls by Nick Brandt. I was able to visit with him for quite some time, see his work up close, and see proof prints for the book. It was a wonderful experience that only reinforced the work I was doing in the class. Santa Fe is magical... Lea On Aug 13, 2011, at 8:07 PM, rene@xxxxxx wrote: > > Lea, I loved the class.
