Arduina Palanca Caponigro
photographer and digital consultant

Arduina Palanca is an Artist/Photographer specializing in Digital Imaging and Giclee Printing. She is currently the Technical Director for Caponigro Arts and teaches here in Rockport at the Maine Photographic Workshops as well as in New Mexico at the Santa Fe Workshops. Arduina has worked extensively in all areas of fine art photography, graphic design and Print media, including layout, design, pre-press, and color calibrated output.
Arduina is a first generation American raised by Italians who immigrated to North Dakota (yes, North Dakota). Her appreciation for the arts grew out of a childhood which was spent equally in Europe and the United States. As her understanding of the creative life developed, she began to recognize art as not only a source of needed expression, but also as a way of life. Because of the importance of an artist’s ability to communicate with their audience, She took advantage of her technological aptitude and mastered as many imaging and design programs as she could.

Arduina has been teaching and consulting for photographers internationally, helping them to see their computers and software as simple artistic tools.
This simplicity is reflected in her personal work in that her images evoke a dreamlike timelessness without a trace of the highend technology used to create it.
