Is that true about Gum Rex, or was that tongue in cheek?
I don't know if either of these guys are doing workshops, but there's
John Brewer, at
http://www.johnbrewerphotography.com/
and Julian Smart. I can't find a website for him, but he has a page
on alternativephotography. I don't have time to search and see if
they have contact information for the artist there.

That would be at least a couple of people to talk to. Good luck,
Katharine
