Postcard from Phoenix, Arizona - The Apache Trail

Postcard from Phoenix, Arizona – The Apache Trail

To set the record straight, I’m typically a Hampton Inn type of guy.  Free breakfast, a clean room and easy access to my car for hauling stuff back and forth.

Bellhops, car service and spa treatments are not really my thing but fate has me at the premier Hyatt Royal Palms in Phoenix, Arizona.

What I’m I going to do while my wife attends a conference right?  Sit around the pool all day – not a…

Selling Art: Marketing is the easy part!

Selling Art: Marketing is the easy part!

I hear my fellow artists and photographers complain all the time – “I hate marketing” but you know what?  Marketing is the easy part!

You know what is hard?  Creating amazing art and photography worth selling!

Coming up with ideas to paint.  Spending hours setting up, painting, cleaning up, retouching, experimenting, creating art.  That is the hard part!

Getting up at 4:30 in the morning…

Aladdin

We all know the story to a certain extent.  A poor street rat named Aladdin comes across an oil lamp with magic qualities.

When the tarnished metal of the lamp is rubbed it summons a magic genie that can grant wishes.

The story has inspired everything from Disney’s animated movie “Aladdin” and its follow up musical as well as TV sitcoms like “I dream of Jeanie” and even the plot line…

Jeff Foliage Stresses Me Out - but in a good way

Jeff Foliage Stresses Me Out – but in a good way

They call him Jeff “Foliage” but his real name is Jeff Folger  and recently he was featured on the CBS Sunday Morning news show because for the last twenty years after retiring from the Airforce, Jeff and his wife Lisa have been driving the roads all over New England exploring and photographing fall foliage spots.

He has become an expert on the region, the Autumn season and the best places to…

Thomas Heaton - These Photographers Don't Get it

Thomas Heaton – These Photographers Don’t Get it

I like this video from photography vlogger and landscape photographer Thomas Heaton.

He tells the story about leading a group of photographers to the famous “Mesa Arch” in Canyonlands National Park in Utah, one of the bucket list locations for landscape photographers.

The arch is one of those done to death locations where landscape photographers stand tripod to tripod jockeying for position…

One of the Greatest (and most Dangerous) Hikes in the World - Angels Landing, Zion National Park

One of the Greatest (and most Dangerous) Hikes in the World – Angels Landing, Zion National Park

The Angels Landing Trail in Zion National Park is no doubt one of the greatest hiking experiences in the world.

Zion National Park fine art photography by Edward M. Fielding 

It’s not even that difficult.  Steep – yes.  Twenty-two or more switchbacks – yes.  But if you are in relatively good shape, watch the weather, bring a lot of water and stop often to soak in the view, it is very…

Using Social Media to Sell Art

Using Social Media to Sell Art

There is a right way and a wrong way to promote and sell your artwork using social media.

Too often artists expect a Pinterest pin, a tweet on Twitter or a Facebook post to bring instant results.

They say “lookie, lookie, I posted a new image on X,Y,Z.  Won’t you buy it?”

C’mon, how often do you personally buy artwork on an impulse?  

If I look back at the times I’ve purchase artwork…

Vintage Airsteam Camper Trailer

Vintage Airsteam Camper Trailer

I’m hardwired to love vintage Airsteam trailers and campers from the early days of the concept of leisure when American’s hit the road to explore their vast country.

I have several Airstream fine art photographs in my portfolio.  Taken in far flung places such as Hawaii, if you can believe someone shipped an Airsteam all the way there, to Vermont.

I think the Airstream-like camper…

Van Trapp's Stone Chapel

Van Trapp’s Stone Chapel

Fans of the beloved movie “The Sound of Music” might not realize that the story is based on the real life Van Trapp family that fled the Nazi take over of Austria and settled in America, eventually in Stowe, Vermont where they opened a resort. 

On the 12th of March, 1938 Austrians witnessed the annexation of Austria into totalitarian Nazi Germany.   This is when Werner von Trapp, age 23 and…

The Southwestern Collection of Fine Art Photographs

The Southwestern Collection of Fine Art Photographs

Where I live in New Hampshire, 83% of the land is forested.  Of course it wasn’t always this way.  Only about a 100 years ago or so it was nearly deforested as timber companies clear cut mountaintops and farms dotted the landscape.  But now the forests have reclaimed most of the landscape.  

Makes for a beautiful fall foliage season but after awhile it gets a bit claustrophobic.  I fine myself…

The Best Tool in Photography, The Photographer Eye

The Best Tool in Photography, The Photographer Eye

More than the latest camera body.  More than most expensive lens.  The photographer’s eye is the most important tool the photographer has to create compelling images.

You can buy the latest camera and a bag full of red ring professional but if you don’t see, compose and create something interesting with them, what’s the point?  

Camera manufactures sell millions of camera equipment each…
