Artist’s Corner – NEW

2012-07-11 / 11 Comments

We are creating a new section on our fabulous website called ‘Artists Corner’. This is another totally unique section, that no other website has. Artist’s Corner will consist of three key areas.

The first area is where we will talk to mobile photography artists about their experiences with submitting images to Galleries. What the process is, how to select the ‘right’ images, costs involved, time, copyright, how to ensure correct color management when printing, how to literally send images safely and of course a lot more.

The second area, is where we talk to the Galleries themselves and ask them directly what they are looking for from mobile photography, what they can offer the mobile photographer, time scales, the costs to exhibit, print and mount and much more.

The third area will be a ‘live’ area where we ‘follow’ particular artists on their endeavors with creating their images for exhibiting, to contacting the Galleries, to exhibiting, or not as the case may be. Effectively the highs and lows as they experience them.

We really think this is going to be another hugely valuable area to our artists and the Galleries too and will be an area that will grow and grow.

We’d love to know your thoughts. Shortly we will be publishing our first article for this section from the Photographic Works and Arts Eye Gallery based in Arizona, don’t miss that…

    The whole work you are doing is amazing! I learn so much every day and get inspired. I will probably never submit to a gallery but it will be an interesting read to see how the pros do it.

      Thank you Gerry, that’s the general idea and I’m really pleased you’re liking it. We want theappwhisperer.com to be a complete resource to the mobile photographer.

    What a fabulous idea! I am desperate to learn more about printing my images, and barely know where to begin. I have not had the time to travel and take a seminar or class to learn the ins ans outs of printing. It’s definitely on my “To Do” list.
