Creative Spaces

May 3, 2002 - © Wendy Folse

As a burgeoning or fledging photographer, learn to carve out your own solitary space. Make it a place where you can think, study, read, take notes, or just sit with a stack of your own photos and learn to be critical of them after the fact. Be critical of the process not yourself. Learn from your mistakes.

Even if you do not, at this point wish to build a complete darkroom, you still owe it to yourself to carve out your own creative space. Photography can be an overwhelming subject to tackle for the beginner with its seemingly mind-boggling jargon of numbers and technical data. Creating a solitary space where you can be alone to think will give you the freedom to process the technical material while still being free to explore the creative process to its fullest.
