Discover Meghan Krauss's background and education. Biography Meghan is a practicing photographic artist who lives and works, amidst domestic chaos, in Victoria, BC.

Meghan has exhibited her work across Canada and the US, attended a self-directed Residency in Northern Iceland (2014) and the Toni Onley Artists' Project, Virtual Edition, through Island Mountain Arts, Wells, BC (2021).

She has also been the recipient of a Saskatchewan Arts Board Independent Artists Project Grant, an Alberta Foundation for the Arts Visual Arts and New Media Individual Project Grant and a British Columbia Arts Council Professional Development Assistance Grant. Her current series, The Artist, is in response to the place she found herself in during the pandemic. Taking notice, via social media, of creative friends', peers and mentors' productive spaces, she began reaching out with the intent of connecting virtually for a photoshoot, regardless of how elaborate or makeshift each individual's spaces were. An intimacy is achieved in the images, as the viewer is allowed into these personal and private spaces during these strange times. Meghan has been teaching photography and beginner drawing at VISA since 2016. www.meghankrauss.com Meghan Krauss Photographer, Artist, Landscapes, Commercial, Art, Meghan, Krauss, Photography, Photo Education MFA University of Windsor BFA University of Saskatchewan Meghan Krauss Create your future COURSES & WORKSHOPS

Discover Thomas Guerrero's background and education. Biography Thomas is the writer behind the blog Sidewalking Victoria which he has been writing since 2015. The blog showcases Thomas' photography both with digital and film cameras. Thomas has been making pictures since he was seven when his dad gave him an old Canonet QL19. At the time he was only allowed to shoot black and white film until he could show that he had mastered the use of the shutter speed and aperture. Like most of the world, Thomas moved on to digital photography until 2020 when he rediscovered that same QL19 and nursed it back to health and began shooting film again. While Thomas’ subject matter is broad, you will see a focus on moments overlaid on both structures and textures. Thomas’ most recent show was as part of the Fernwood Art Stroll and has self-published a number of photography books that are available online. https://www.sidewalkingvictoria.com/ Education BA History and Anthropology, University of Victoria Thomas Guerrero Create your future COURSES & WORKSHOPS
