Thank You…

Just a little note to thank you for following the Amazon link that I have added to TheAppWhisperer.com website. Each time you click on that and then go on to make a purchase from Amazon, we receive 5% of the value. I feel that it’s a good way for anyone, that wants to to help with the costs of running the site anonymously.

Many artists have suggested that I set up a Donate section, that many others are doing, following my Amazon suggestion. However, this is not something I will entertain. I am an artist, as you all are, you are not my customers and I am not your retailer. I know how hard it is to think of original ideas and then to bring them to fruition. The content you find on TheAppWhisperer.com is always unique, it is not plagiarised. I have spent the past thirty years of my life in the photography and publishing industry. I have a huge track record of published photography and writing. I am a professional Journalist and Photographer, I am not a blogger. I have worked for huge publishing organisations and when I created TheAppWhisperer, I did so because I wanted to, first and foremost. I wanted to bring all the knowledge and experience that I have built up, over those 30 full time years, into this project. This is what I do. I will not ask you to donate money, you donate every single day, your images that you forward to our Flickr groups are evidence of that. Earlier this year, I turned down a very good full-time opportunity to edit NikonPro magazine, one that I have contributed to in the past and one that I hugely admire. I serve you all, we are all equal, we all use the skills that we have developed, to help each other. That’s all I am interested in, we are a team.

Joanne Carter, creator of the world’s most popular mobile photography and art website— TheAppWhisperer.com— TheAppWhisperer platform has been a pivotal cyberspace for mobile artists of all abilities to learn about, to explore, to celebrate and to share mobile artworks. Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said. Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London. Pioneering the world’s first mobile art online gallery - TheAppWhispererPrintSales.com has extended her reach even further, shipping from London, UK to clients in the US, Europe and The Far East to a global group of collectors looking for exclusive art to hang in their homes and offices. The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art. Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine. Her own freelance photographic journalistic work is also widely acclaimed. She has been published extensively both within the UK and the US in national and international titles. These include The Times, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Popular Photography & Imaging, dpreview, NikonPro, Which? and more recently with the BBC as a Contributor, Columnist at Vogue Italia and Contributing Editor at LensCulture. Her professional photography has also been widely exhibited throughout Europe, including Italy, Portugal and the UK. She is currently writing several books, all related to mobile art and is always open to requests for new commissions for either writing or photography projects or a combination of both.
