Expressive Self Portraiture - Registration Opening Soon

March 23, 2020

“Whenever a fairy tale is told, it becomes night. No matter where the dwelling, no matter the time, no matter the season, the telling of tales causes a starry sky and a white moon to creep from the eaves and hover over the heads of the listeners. Sometimes, by the end of the tale, the chamber is filled with daybreak, other times a star shard is left behind, sometimes a ragged thread of storm sky. And whatever is left behind is our bounty to work with, to use toward soul-making.” - Clarissa Pinkola Estes

What does your story you long to share look like? Come join me in Expressive Self Portraiture! Registration is opening soon.

Who is this class for? Some photographers may feel intimidated or turned off by the conceptual feel to my work, but that is not what this class is about. It’s about you as an individual. It’s about us as a collective group of photographers learning about ourselves and from each other.
.
This class is for all levels. I’ve had students who have just begun learning how to shoot in manual all the way to advanced photographers looking to try something new or push themselves even further. Some are terrified at the idea of being the subject of their work, while others have done it for years.
.
What I’ve witnessed over and over again is a group of diverse artists coming together and forming a common thread. We laugh. We learn. We play. We create. We cry. We heal. We love. We grow. Together.
.

Whether you are feeling a small pull or a burning fire, now is the time! You can read testimonials HERE and feel free to email me with any questions. sharoncovertphotography@gmail.com

The Moon

January 8, 2020

The Moon 🌙 
She’s about darkness and illumination and finding that balance. She’s about enchantment and reality and the in-between. She’s about uncovering what was right there in front of her the whole time. She’s about learning to see both here and now, and in her dreams. She’s learning to lean in and trust her intuitive nature. It’s always been there. She doesn’t realize the true depth of the power she holds, but that will come in time. She ebbs and flows and dances to the rhythm of her own heart. ♥️

Artists Supporting Artists

January 8, 2020

Do you ever feel lost in a sea of other creatives just like you? The
truth is, it’s all been said, done, and created before, but not by you in
your unique voice and in your authentic way that only you can do. We should
feel comfortable in creating and sharing the art and images that call to our souls!
🌙
I wholeheartedly believe in artists supporting artists. I want to thank each and every one of you for your support. It truly means so much to me. I am in awe of the people who take the time to leave comments, DM me, and email me. It never goes unnoticed or unappreciated.
🌙
What are some ways you’d like to see artists supporting artists? The more we share with each other, the better.
