Karen Sperling Takes the Artistry Retreats on the Road

Atlanta: May 12-14, 2010; Los Angeles: May 24-26, 2010; June 21-23, 2010; New York: June 28-30, 2010.

Los Angeles, CA, April 30, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Karen Sperling, author of the highly acclaimed book, Painting for Photographers, is bringing her popular Artistry Retreats to Atlanta in May and to New York in June, in addition to the ones in Los Angeles during both months.

"Photographers from Florida to Maine are particularly successful selling painted portraits to clients, and I received many requests to offer my art lessons and software steps in Atlanta and New York so that other photographers might tap into this lucrative field," Karen says. "In addition, many hobbyists who live along the east coast asked that I offer an Artistry Retreat so that they could learn to paint photos of their kids, grandkids and travels."

The Artistry Retreats offer the art concepts and Corel Painter and Adobe Photoshop software steps for turning portrait and landscape photos into works of art.

No art experience is necessary, and attendees learn the software steps in the class. You just need to know how to use a computer and by the end of the three-day Artistry Retreat, you will be painting your photos.

The Artistry Retreats get rave reviews like these:
“I have taken other classes in painting that were taught by people well known in the world of professional photography and although I did gain knowledge from every class I have taken, I feel Karen Sperling’s method of teaching and deep understanding of the nuts and bolts of the program mixed with her true artistic talent gave me more than I have gotten from any other class.”- Marsha Cairo, photographer and artist, Chicago

“Karen Sperling showed things that I have not seen in any other books. I can remember thinking more than once, when she gave a certain tip, that this is worth the price of admission!”- Julie, Austin, Texas

“Karen Sperling's Artistry Retreat was interesting, fun and easy to keep up the pace. I can now offer fine art painterly portraits as a deluxe product, and my customers love it!”- Robin Swanson, Treasurer, Professional Photographers of California

Professionals and hobbyists can also learn to paint their photos by reading the widely praised book, Painting for Photographers, which has received unanimous 5-star reviews at amazon.com like this:
"If you're a photographer and would like to shorten the learning curve of the best software for creating artwork from your photographs, there is no better way than this book. Karen Sperling is the master of this software."-S. Ashbrook
