Connecting Through Art

March 25, 2020

Self-portraiture gives me a sense of freedom and control. Turning to creativity and art during this distressing time has provided me with both an escape and a feeling of grounding.

Sharing and connecting through our art is more important now than ever before. How can I support you? Let’s support one another and hold space for each other.

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

To Love at the Fault Line
