Documenting your Artwork: COVID Edition

During COVID there is a continued need to create well balanced artwork documentation despite the lack of traditional resources or photographic studios. This workshop will discuss and demonstrate techniques for portfolio documentation of artwork (Photographic Images, Drawings, Paintings, Collage, Sculpture and Digital Images) in personal studios, homes or other atypical locations. Documentation techniques will be largely photographic with a focus on managing lighting configurations and camera settings. We will use Adobe Photoshop as a tool for simple digital post production methods to address common challenges in artwork documentation. Finally we will demonstrate the application of 3D modeling and rendering techniques to apply artwork documentation to simulated gallery conditions.
