Lecture with Eileen Neff

Eileen Neff received her Master's in painting from Tyler 30 years ago, however she left her painting behind her when she discovered photography. Since she comes from a painting background, she approaches photography in a completely different way than people from a strict photography background; people like me I guess. I originally started playing with art with a similar framework: drawing and painting. I didn't formally study photography until late in high school, but that is my favorite medium now. I didn't really care for Eileen's work or perspective from any point of view though. I felt it was really simple and having such a wide variety of training, she could take it to a much higher level.
