"From Smartphone Image to Photographic Art: Using Your Smartphone Camera and Apps to Transform Your Garden Images into Digital Art"
Mary Louise Ravese, Bella Vista Photography

• Thursday, June 13, 2019 – 10:00 am–12:00 pm

The smartphone is the camera many of us have with us at all times so why not use the phone's camera capability together with inexpensive phone-based apps to turn our pictures into digital art in the style of drawings, watercolors, and paintings. In this session, you'll learn about three digital art apps: Prisma, Painteresque, and Waterlogue. We'll use these apps to create digital art using photographs we take in the Arboretum with our smartphones or images from your phone's camera roll.

What to bring: iPhone or Android smartphone with one or more of the following apps installed: Prisma, Painteresque, Waterlogue. Apps are either free or cost $5.00 or less each.
