What our students say about our teachers
The cyanotype class of Claudia was really mind blowing for me! Exploring this new printing technique and creating digital negatives has really opened a new window that I want to incorporate in my photographic practise. Claudia has been a very inspiring teacher. She went thoroughly through the process of cyanotype on glass as well as her own practise and work of other contemporary and historical artists using cyanotype printing techniques. I also very much appreciated the attention Claudia gave to our individual projects/ideas, pointing to artworks and ways of working we might find relevant and inspiring.
—Eugenia (Berlin)
This was a really good class! Erin’s presentations were great and included a lot of unfamiliar and thought-provoking material. And the class was a good group of students, all with thoughtful and relevant things to say.
—Christine (New York City)
Live online photography classes makes learning fun and easy. The best part is that you get to meet and talk with participating photographers from all over the world.
—Ulla (Stockholm)
Thanks again, Anja and Edward, for a wonderful class — I can certainly say that I got what I was hoping for out of it.
—David (New York)
