Nancy Rotenberg Discusses "Creative Process"

Digital Imagers Meeting

Sunday December 3, 2002 at 1:15, Carnegie Library Squirrel Hill

Prevailing mythology has it that creativity is a gift of some sort, but really it is a state of being - a quality of mind available to us all.

Through slides and discussion, Nancy will lead us along a path that ventures into the mode of exploration, of subject and light, of assumed boundaries of photography, and on paths that travel beyond personal horizons.
