Photographer, John Vellenga gave a stimulating talk on how the manipulation of light can change a simple photo into a real work of art.
Some thirty of his own photographs are currently on display in the Buchanan gallery along with ceramics by Linda Sickmon. The show, titled Visions and Vessels, will be up until March 31st. Mr. Vellenga has also just had a prize winning photo in the Galex Show at the Civic Art Center in Galesburg, IL.
