SUMMARY:Education & Training - (In-Person) Matting with Bob and Willa Friedman
DESCRIPTION:At this month’s Education and Training session\, Bob and Willa will present a how-to/hands-on matting seminar to help members prepare their images for print competition\, exhibits or for personal use.   \n\n\n\nAfter our brief demonstration\, there will be several workstations around the room where several experienced members will demonstrate how they cut mat using their equipment.   This is a hands-on session\, so bring a photo\, not larger than 8.5 x11 to mat.  We will have mat board and other materials required to practice on. \n\n\n\nIf you have a mat cutter\, bring it to follow along. \n\n\n\nAlso\, if you have a jump/flash drive bring it so we can share our spreadsheet for cutting dimensions. \n\n\n\nBob Friedman\n\n\n\nWilla Friedman\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBIOs:  \n\n\n\nBob started his photography journey as a teenager with a darkroom in his parents’ basement which he inherited from his brother. The first thing he did when he and Willa bought their house was to build a darkroom in the basement. \n\n\n\nWilla first became involved in photography as an instructor at the American Museum of Natural History in New York where she photographed wildlife in city parks for the NYC schools and where her images were published in a fourth-grade textbook. \n\n\n\nBob and Willa say that If selling a few photos makes them pros\, then they are pros. Otherwise they consider themselves advanced amateurs. They have taken courses and workshops at Photoworks at Glen Echo and with Freeman Patterson and Andre Gallant in New Brunswick\, Canada. They have also had extensive courses in Photoshop. They have been members of NVPS for 17 years. \n\n\n\nWhile their subjects are varied\, Bob enjoys street photography and Willa looks for reflections everywhere. Both use a Fuji X-T5 with various lenses. \n\n\n\nTheir work is currently on display at the Art League in the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria\, and they have had images published in the Northern Virginia Review and District Lines. They have had multiple images in the Ralph Rinzler Folklife Archives and Collections at the Smithsonian Institution and have prints on display in various professional offices in the Metro DC area. \n\n\n\nTheir current job is retirement—while it doesn’t pay very well\, it’s a lot more fun than working. \n\n\n\nIn Person at the Dunn Loring Firehouse
