One of the world's most celebrated 20th century photographers, Ansel Adams is famous for the impressive wilderness landscapes he photographed such as Yosemite Valley and the High Sierras. In this hands-on art history class, we'll delve into his artistic style and why he chose the subject matter that he did. Hands-on drawing and coloring will be part of this class as we learn more about the genius behind the camera. “We all know the tragedy of dust bowls, the cruel unforgiving erosion of the soil, the depletion of fish and game and the shrinking of the noble forests, and we know that such catastrophes shrivel the spirit of man...the wilderness is pushed back, man is everywhere. Solitude, so vital to man, is almost nowhere.” - Ansel Adams Please bring a materials fee of $5.00, payable to the instructor at the time of the class. Thank you!
