Next Meeting: April 10 7:00 PM - Virtual

Subject: The Art of the Print

Speaker: Sandy Dimky

The key to this presentation is that getting the image on paper can be just as important as taking the image. In the presentation the joy of seeing your images in print will be discussed, Drawback of solely preserving digital images (safekeeping and archival use) will be explained. Topics will include different types of papers for use in your printer or with 3rd party printers, manufacturers of paper as well as exhibiting prints nationally and worldwide through competitions.  Lastly the value of study groups will be discussed.  

Bio

After spending over thirty years in architectural photography in Connecticut, Sandy now lives just north of Beaufort, SC with her husband Russ, where she concentrates on fine art photography.

Her goal is to freeze moments in a creative way, either by unique camera angles or adding a different perspective with post processing.  A traveler at heart, her photos try to capture the excitement of the world around her, whether in coastal South Carolina,  or in more exotic locales around the globe.

  • Sandy's books include Hands Across the Lowcountry and The Cats of Beaufort.
  • Her photo "Winter Façade" was chosen as the cover for Charleston Salt and Iron and "Southern Backseat Drivers" was selected for the cover of Along Southern Roads

 Sandy just retired as the  worldwide Chair of the Pictorial Print Division of Photographic Society of America and remains on their Board.  She is an accredited PSA judge and has critiqued images for over 40 years in across the US.  She was inducted into the Federation Internationale d’Art Photographique  in 2022 where she holds their AFIAP distinction. 

In 2019 she was juried into the National Association of Women Artists and won their Annual Photography award in 2021. She is a certified peer juror for NAWA also.

Her work is exhibited at the Brick Wall Gallery of Beaufort Art Association where she recently had a solo exhibit called “Frozen Moments” – a retrospective of her 50 years in Photography. Sandy is on the Beaufort Art Association Board as VP Gallery.
