September 01, 2009 - Program Meeting with Glenn Howell: "I See What You're Saying, Can You Say What I'm Seeing?"

Glenn Howell has been fascinated with art since age six when he discovered that drawing numbers in different ways gave them a different "personality". He didn't quite understand this as an aspect of intuition then but just "felt" it. His introduction to photography came at about age twelve when his father gave him an 8mm movie camera and he began making primitive animated films.

Since then he has gone on to earn his B.F.A. degree in studio art and photography, teach art to various age groups, exhibit in many one-person and group shows around the country, winning awards including Best of Show at the 2009 Meadowlark Nature Photography Expo. Glenn currently has a one-man show of his work hanging at Truro Church in Fairfax until November.

His desire to do a program started with seeing the need to help members understand that photography has many alternative approaches other than those perpetuated in many camera club programs he's seen.There is a difference between a photograph "of" something and a photograph "about" something which Glenn hopes to help participants understand during his talk.

The emphasis will also be on using photography as a means of personal discovery and expression.Glenn will use an interactive approach to help the audience learn more about their own photography with examples from other photographers throughout history as well as a few of his own to illustrate.In other words, he wanted to present a program that he himself would be interested in attending.

This should be a fun and interesting evening, full of information and challenges to help you not only be a better photographer, but one with deeper understanding.If you're interested in joining us for dinner at 6:00 pm at Chili's prior to the meeting, please rsvp to mary.m.o'neill "at" gsk.com.
