SUMMARY:Member’s Gallery – Prints (Virtually): Close to Home with Willa Friedman
DESCRIPTION:For the past two years\, because of the pandemic\, Willa has been photographing very close to home. This is an overview of the parks in the vicinity and almost all the pictures were taken in the last two years. The only exception that she can think of is the river otter at Huntley Meadows\, but they are unusual and Willa wanted to show what might be seen in these places. \nWilla’s first job after college was as an instructor at the American Museum of Natural History in New York\, She had a choice of several summer projects—filing\, cleaning animal cages or photographing wildlife in city parks for the NYC schools. She claimed to be able to do photography and came home with a camera. Bob taught her everything she needed to know over the following weekend and her work was published. Bob still claims to have taught her everything she knows.\n\nWilla has taken courses and workshops at Photoworks at Glen Echo\, and with Freeman Patterson and Andre Gallant in New Brunswick\, Canada\, and Santa Fe Workshop. She has also had extensive courses in Photoshop with Eliot Cohen. She has been a member of NVPS since 2004 and has learned  a great deal from the members and speakers. She is currently coordinator for the solo shows at Beanetics\, or will be when they re-open. \nHer work is on display at the Art League Gallery at the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria and she has an image in the permanent collection of the Joseph Miller Center for Photographic Arts and has had images published in the Northern Virginia Review  and District Lines and has had solo shows at 1st Stage and Beanetics Coffee Rosters in Annandale and has been  a guest artist at Waverly Street Gallery in Bethesda. \n
