Course Description
Join Diana Markosian for an inspiring online workshop focused on developing your personal story and artistic expression. Designed to help you create work that sets you apart, this workshop emphasizes the importance of personal projects in driving creative growth. Together, we explore the deep connection between personal experiences and artistic output, with practical guidance from Diana on editing, sequencing, and refining projects. The workshop also explores how to articulate your story through photography, writing, and film, while also addressing the narrative challenges that come with successful storytelling.
Diana provides the tools and insights, and each participant provides the community needed to advance your artistic journey, deepen your understanding of your personal narrative, and build the confidence to share it through your distinctive creative voice. In a supportive and safe environment, you have the opportunity to openly develop your unique personal stories.
Over four weeks, Diana leads both individual and group critiques, offering valuable feedback on your work and insights on career paths. Previous work or ongoing projects provide the fuel for this dynamic workshop. You leave with a clearer personal vision and a well-defined artistic style, crafted through focused guidance and feedback from Diana.
