Spirit of Place : Guatemala
The Art Workshops in Guatemala, with Doug Beasley, October 29 – November 8, 2009
We invite you to the mysterious, exotic Mayan world of Guatemala, a land where the indigenous live as they have for centuries. The colonial city of Antigua, the artistic center of Guatemala, will be our home base and a lovely, cultural introduction to outdoor markets, music, food, local villages and friends. We'll spend a few days exploring small towns around majestic Lake Atitlan, near Panajachel, which Lonely Planet hails as “the most beautiful lake in the world”.
We invite all image makers searching to expand their artistic and creative horizons. Emphasis is less on technique and more on increasing visual awareness of the surrounding world. The itinerary reflects Doug Beasley's deep respect and passionate interest in indigenous peoples and the timeless quality of sacredness in their lives. Appropriate for all levels, but must have a working knowledge of your camera.
