Mentorship #GMAPP3: Grand Finale of Album Shares:
"Robin gave her time and energy to teach us how to trust ourselves into being and developing this artist we all are inside. This is where everything came together and the tight community this program has created enabled everyone in the group to strive." ~ Eric Raeber
Eric Raeber is pure creativity. You will smile, laugh and be very impressed with his work.
Please take a moment to read the text and peruse the works, you won't be disappointed!
The end of my third 12-week mentorship arrived here at Google+ , the G+ Mentorship ART Program for Photographers through the G+ Mentorship Program for Photographers that I run here, along with Ron Clifford andTamara Pruessner.
It is with mixed feelings that I come to the end of each mentorship; sad about the close of a very intense time with a great group of people that I have grown to love over the weeks, but very happy to read of the triumphs that the members have had from the time. The quality of the work from these folks has certainly been enough to eclipse any melancholy I might feel. Thank you for letting me share with you their works from that time over these few weeks. Also, if you want to read more of the successes from this program, click on this tag: #GMAPP3
"Thank you, Robin … You will never know what this program has done for my heart, my mind, and my soul. I have a new purpose in life … one I haven't felt in more than 5 years." ~ Dawn Carl
"I learned more in 12 weeks from Robin than I'd learned in the previous 12 months from all the books and blogs I've read." ~ Chris Smith
"My confidence and belief in myself as a person, a photographer and an artist has grown beyond my wildest dreams. … I wholeheartedly recommend signing up for the next available mentorship program, the knowledge and friends that I have gained has surpassed my wildest expectations." ~ Sarah Keane
"I had no idea of what to expect … or how it would change me. Now, I can happily say, it's changed everything! ~ Sairam Sundaresan
"I appreciate the creativity that Robin shared with all of us. The way she creatively presented the weekly assignments was as refreshing as the images she posts here on G+. When the time comes for her next mentorship program I encourage everyone to apply––it is challenging, but I learned so, so much!" ~ Tawni Henlin
"When we started, I had no idea of the depth of knowledge I would gain from the +G+ Mentorship Program for Photographers led by +Robin Griggs Wood. From the concrete knowledge ... to the immeasurable benefits of new experiences, each week was epic. ~ Brian Grzelewski
"It's the best thing I ever did for my photography, period." ~ Todd Green

For anyone who has read this far, consider mentoring someone else here (or more) ... some people don't even know where to start with their cameras and you could be the change they need in their lives. Even the smallest bit of knowledge can be passed on. Join the ranks of these stellar people who've committed a small amount of their time to help others through the program: Ron Clifford Tamara Pruessner Beth Akerman Randy Jay Braun Roni Delmonico Sharon Thomas Olav Folland Darryl Van Gaal and Patricia Davidson

14 weeks ago, when I was accepted into the G+ Mentorship Program for Photographers, I did not exactly know what I would get myself into.
By reading the posts from other photographers I followed, I knew the program was fantastic, but I had no clue who Robin Griggs Wood was. By the time I went through the mentee selection process, I worried a bit on how demanding the program would be. Not that I was afraid of creating the many images the program required, but I felt constrained by the organizational and behavioral boundaries which would make me so prone to a faux-pas!
Half way into the program, I realized this was all prep work. We learnt indeed fabulous new tools to create visual art. These are tools which, as a photographer, you may already know intuitively. However, I had neither the vocabulary to describe nor the ability to repeat the composition, the colors or the harmony of my favorite images or of work that inspired me.
The 15 images in this album are the result of this learning.
But more importantly, Robin gave here time and energy to teach us how to trust ourselves into being and developing this artist we all are inside. This is where everything came together and the tight community this program has created enabled everyone in the group to strive. Robin planted this seed that more than ever entices me to not only grow my skills by experimenting and learning more, but to also pass this on to others who are eager to develop their own artistic skills.
Everything I have learnt over these past 14 weeks would not have been possible without the help of some wonderful Alumni in the program: Alex Lapidus, Tawni Henlin, Doug Welch, Todd Green, Craig Szymanski, Doug Welch, Sam Breach to only name a few.
