The Master's Project is the floral design of Erba's Riley Messina and the natural light photography of Annie Beedy.
Through The Masters Project we will make original floral arrangements based on classic floral paintings. Using natural light at every location we shoot in will further the effect of an original painting brought to life in a photograph. With the help of some special guests these set ups will be unique from the originals, not your Granny's still lifes. We do not seek to copy original works, rather draw inspiration from them and make new.
Annie and Riley discovered their love for the same dimly lit, moody still life floral paintings around the same time and confessed to each other that, though they love them, neither of them could afford one. The Masters Project will give us all the opportunity to have one...or three.
Funds raised will go fully toward purchasing the flowers for each scene and paper for each print along with any rentals, compensation of models and additional supplies.
