<![CDATA[I am a digital infrared photographer and have published two books on the topic. I am located in San Francisco and am seeking a female model for experimental projects in nude infrared photography. Infrared light cannot be seen by the naked eye, however specially modified digital cameras and filters that transmit only infrared light can be used to record infrared. In infrared, the sky and water appear black because they absorb infrared light, and plants, grass and other foliage appear white because they reflect it. The human body appears almost pearl-like and most blemishes, etc disappear in infrared. I have attached four example low resolution infrared images to this posting. If you happen to have tattoos, you can see that they are highlighted in a very interesting way in infrared photography, as shown in the last two photos. This is not a paid project, however I will help you develop a portfolio of infrared, normal color or black and white photos and give you the images on CD or DVD in exchange for your time. I use high resolution infrared-enabled digital SLRs for my work. Previous modeling experience is not required. This is an experimental project for those who are interested in artistic posing using an alternative kind of photography that is really quite interesting. If interested, please reply with example photos and some information about yourself and your goals for modeling and photography. I will also email more example infrared images. Thank you. ]]>

<![CDATA[Hello: I admit that this will sound a bit strange, but I have always wanted to try modeling nude for a female artist, painter, photographer, etc. I have wanted to try it, but I've been too embarrassed to actually do it. Anyway, I'm ready to give it a go! So, if you are a female artist (professional or amateur) or art student, and want someone you could practice with, please let me know. I'm willing to do anything to help you out, and I'm also happy to pay you for the experience. (Is $100 fair?) I'm a 41-year old single white male who is in good shape, handsome, and fit. I'm also a very nice person, who is a business professional in his "real life." Anyway, I really would take my job seriously, and I'd do my best to be a good model for you. Thank you. ]]>

<![CDATA["Andrew Utter's class is what most Los Angeles Acting classes are not: Technique based rather than self-indulgent emotion based. He teaches actors to take the focus off themselves and onto the other person, to get the other person to give them what they want, to get the other person to feel something. The actor becomes active, and immediately captivating. It's a rigorous class, filled with readings and big ideas, but it's grounded in techniques that will set your guts on fire and get you to start really acting, instead of just faking it really well. There is something revolutionary in his technique and it will put you above all other actors in L.A."---JB Waterman, actor Mother of Invention Acting School Yale MFA director Andrew Utter offers challenging classes for serious, motivated students. $380, 10 weeks.

<![CDATA[DAGUERREOTYPE Michael Shindler Sat and Sun, 10a-5p, May 22 and 23 Even after more than 170 years since its invention, the Daguerreotype remains arguably the most beautiful photographic process. During this two-day workshop, we’ll take you through the entire process – from bare copper plate to silvery, jewel-like Daguerreotype – and explain the tools and techniques necessary to make these images safely using the original mercury-development method. You’ll learn to polish and electroplate your own plates, then sensitize, expose and develop them through a chemical process that is so elegantly simple it will make you weep tears of joy for the pure alchemical magic of it. Hooray for photography! Each participant will have the opportunity to produce several 2x3” plates, which can be portraits or still-life images made here in our studio or landscapes made just outside our doors in the bustle of downtown San Francisco. All equipment and materials are provided, and one custom-made Daguerreotype presentation case is included.

<![CDATA[Hello, I would like to be a part of a group of conscious mindful inspirational poets, who would like to share their work with other like-minded people who who may go on to do public conscious poetry readings. I would like to be in a group that is heart-centered, supportive, collaborative, inspirational, and productive. I also want to be in a responsible and respectful group that makes group decisions, as opposed to having a pyramid leader dynamic. I practice meditation, mindfulness, compassionate communication (nvc), and have strong leanings towards Zen and Tibetan Buddhist teachings. I'm down to earth and want to contribute through my writing in a peaceful, loving, respectful way. I've been a writer since childhood, am currently writing a book, and couldn't imagine life without writing! If this resonates with you, please contact me. Warmly, Jeannie ]]>

<![CDATA[If you are looking for a good photographer that is inexpensive and can produce excellent pictures, then I am the girl for you. My name is Angie and I am looking for a chance to broaden my horizons and my skills and at the same time give you excellent pictures that will keep your memories alive. I have been taking pictures for over 10years, and I have been told that I have a very good eye. I love taking pictures of people, but I also can do animals or landscaping as well. I studied photography for a short while at the Academy of Art University, but lately most of my photography involves taking pictures of my friends and the different events I attend. I do also have experience taking engagement pictures as well as wedding photography. I also frequently photograph the children I watch to see their growth. I can do indoor or outdoor photography, but I most enjoy outdoors or indoor without a flash because it provides the best results. Whatever you might want a picture of, let me know and I can probably help you out. You will not be dissapointed. On top of that you will be very blessed to get good quality photographs at unbeatable prices! If you have a family event you would like for me to attend and photograph, or you want family or children portraits, or even a month-month documented event, then I am willing to help you out. I also am available for engagement photos and wedding photography. I am up for whatever you might have in mind. My rate is dependent on the extent and details of the job and I am more than happy to work with your needs. If you are interested, please email me or feel free to call 650-759-6547. Angie Look forward to hearing from you soon.]]>

<![CDATA[I have been lampworking aka blowing glass for about 10 years now. I first started out making pipes and selling to various headshops. However, the pipe market is somewhat saturated and 5-6 years ago I really got into making glass jewelry. Jewelry as in pendants, beads, and bracelets. I incorporate leather and metal (primarily copper) into the glass jewelry. I have had the chance to meet a lot of great artists, beaders, jewelry makers, metalsmiths, and of course glass blowers aka lampworkers. So I would like to give a little back to all. Here is a link to 51 videos that I have posted on youtube showing me blow glass. I am not here to be an instructor rather just to show how I did it: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/rkglass" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/rkglass</a> I also would invite you to visit my etsy site which I have my surplus inventory for very low prices and free shipping: <a href="http://rkglass.etsy.com" rel="nofollow">http://rkglass.etsy.com</a> Thanks for checking me out!]]>

<![CDATA[Hi, This might be a long shot but I am looking for someone who would help me with basic drawing instruction lessons in exchange for modeling time. I could model for you or a class you teach, etc in exchange for instruction or participation in the class. Or, it doesn't have to be that formal-- you could offer tips/instruction during drawing sessions and we could split up the time between modeling/drawing/instruction in a way that made sense. I'm in good shape, can hold poses and strive to be a good model and fun and easy to deal with. You don't have to be a drawing instructor-- just someone who would enjoy both sides of this-- the drawing practice with a model and helping someone progress with the basics. Thanks!]]>

<![CDATA[The Bennett Valley Education Foundation is hosting it's second annual Valley of the Arts event on Friday, April 16th, 2010. We will be holding a live and silent auction to support art and music in the Bennett Valley Union School District. With budget cuts at an all time high, we could really use the help of our community in keeping the arts alive for our children. This is where you come in! As part of the silent auction, the BVEF will be collecting artwork and wine as well as art and music related services. We would love to include something from you, a family member or someone you know. Each donation will be optimally displayed and promoted, and will help us to generate funds to keep art and music alive in our district. Our board provides art, vocal and instrumental music, dance, a resident artist and much more! If you have experience matting or framing or know someone with a frame shop, we are looking for help in that area as well! All donations need to be collected by April 2nd. Thanks so much for your help. All Best, Sarah A. Mones & Juliane Lewis (Co-Chairs) Bennett Valley Education Foundation ]]>

<![CDATA[Looking for one or more people I'm artistically compatible with to hang out and draw/paint together on the regular. I have a hard time staying focused... except when I do art with someone else. I have a studio in a great location (half block from FourBarrel.) There is excellent music, lots of art & art books/films, epic people watching via my windows overlooking Valencia, and my schedule is flexible except Mon/Tue. Also, I can travel, but I'm saying - I have a rad space. I don't care if you're M or F, age, orientation, etc is inconsequential... but it would be neat if we had some stuff in common.

<![CDATA[My Name is Heidi and I live in the San Francisco Bay area. I am a ballet instructor and also a model, actress and Indie Queen wannabe. I have travelled extensively throughout Europe and will continue to do so. I am making myself available as a fine art nude model to fund my short feature film that I am producing and acting in. The project is very important to me and so is its urgency in getting it made. I love getting naked for fine art. I am a tall, raven haired, fit woman of Tuscan decent. I will do fine art nudes only!!! If you know what that means than your work will speak for itself and I will work with you if I agree that you know what a fine art nude is. I love working with inspired photographers who have respect for their craft. What you see with me is what you get. No more; no less. Drop me a message and I will look at your work and respond. Please note I love pic comments and will respond wholeheartedly. I travel when expenses are paid via PayPal. Ask for details. More info at: TheContemptuousRuby.blogspot.com Thank you, Heidi]]>

<![CDATA[MODEL MAKEUP WORKSHOP FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS Workshop Date: Sunday, March 28 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. Location: Photo Studio in San Francisco A photographic image permanently captures a visual record of a moment in time and models captured at that moment must look their very best. Since modern high resolution digital cameras can create images that tend to exaggerate facial flaws and make human skin appear rough, sophisticated makeup has become more important than ever. During a photo shoot, models cannot see themselves so they rely on the photographer to monitor the quality of their makeup and to alert them when there is a problem needing immediate attention. Unfortunately, most photographers have little or no knowledge about makeup: what it consists of, how it is applied and how to tell when it has gone wrong. We have hired Theresa, a very experienced makeup artist, stylist and educator, to conduct a 3 hour workshop in makeup know-how for the photographer. Theresa's extensive roster of celebrity clients includes: Paul McCartney, Matthew Broderick, Jason Priestly, Ryan O'Neal, Robin Givens, Joe Pesci, Diane Ladd, Mickey Rooney, Cheryl Ladd, the Smothers Brothers and many more. She will use a professional Ford Agency model to demonstrate exactly how she evaluates the needs of the individual model and then explains in detail the steps required in applying makeup successfully. She will also address the ways in which makeup can change and how to recognize and correct problems. This professional workshop will help you to create even better images in the new high definition digital era. Limited to a maximum of 10 photographers. Workshop fee: only $99.00 To register for the workshop or for more information, send a reply to this posting.]]>

Then, we will set up a time for you to come to my house with your art equipment and photography equipment and start.. I will only work with another woman. I am a surogate and would like to capture this special moment. Mona]]>

There is no extra cost for the use of the studio or lighting equipment - we also provide a pocket wizard to fire the strobe lights. For photographers who are new to working with models and lighting equipment, we can help with the set up of your camera. Hope you can join us for an outstanding event. Edward Woods ]]>
