About The DVD: Beyond The Digital Print with Mary Taylor ABOUT THE CREATION OF THE DVD This DVD wasrecorded in my studio during the spring of 2007, by Filmaker, Ben Kerns. Forover twenty years Kerns has been an explorer of light and human emotion. Beauty in all it’s forms has lead him to create sensitive fashion &lifestyle photography for clients throughout the world. As afilmmaker he has explored the depths of human emotion in all it’s forms. Above all, Kerns seeks to affirm a deep commitment to the celebration oflife. I am very grateful to himfor his support of my vision to bring my workshops to you via DVD. Check outBen Kerns Photography & Films. It is my hope that you will be inspired to experiment and discover yourown processes. Over time processes and materials evolve so there is no onecorrect way to make your art. However some things do work better than others and I hope you will findmy demonstrations helpful in your own creative journey. The processes shown aredesigned encourage you to think about alternatives to flat ready made inkjetcoated paper and canvas. Today digitally mastered artwork no longer needs to betethered to pixels on a screen, by blending humblest materials with an inkjet precoatand archival inks from an inkjet printer you can create works of art that havedimension and substance.
