EIC Theme: Color
Guest Speaker: Victoria Restrepo
SPEAKER’S BIO:
Victoria is an accomplished professional photographer as well as an artist, with over 30 years of experience; she specializes in fine art, nature and travel photography. She studied fine arts in Colombia and photography at The New England School of Photography, in Boston. She has worked as a Commercial Photographer and as a photography and Photoshop teacher.
She was born in Colombia, South America, a magical place where mountains, gigantic rivers, deserts and rainforests run into the oceans. This fierce nature and the vibrant colors from her native Country are always present in her work. She works with light, her imagination and her own memories creating imaginary still lifes and landscapes, mixing photography, painting, and digital art.
Photography has always been around her. Her grandfather, her great-grandfather and her great-great-grandfather were some of the earliest photographers in South America and the Caribbean. The smell of the photographic chemicals, and the magical darkness of her family lab marked her life forever.
Victoria speaks at camera clubs, judges photographic competitions, teaches photography and Photoshop, and has an art studio for children.
