Image of the Week Fine Art Print Offer
Each week, I post an image from my recent or historical work and talk a little
bit about it; the process, creative thought, and technical details that
contributed to its creation. During the week an image is featured, I offer it as
a Limited Edition Fine Art Print at a special price. Each image is printed
personally by me on the latest Epson printers using archival pigment inks on
acid-free archival paper. The prints are shipped matted and signed and can be
framed using a standard size, off-the-shelf frame from your local frame shop.

Image of the Week
Close to Home
The best stuff is right under our noses...but we don't always notice it. You
get used to your house, your yard, your driveway, your town and you no longer
see those things graphically. Many of us ignore the scenes immediately
surrounding us and seek inspiration elsewhere. I do it all the time, especially
when I stumble upon cheap airfare to a national park and can rope a friend into
a week-long backpacking trip.
This is a bad policy if you want to shoot everyday, or if you don't have tons of
frequent flyer miles. I feel lazy, even stagnant if I'm not out shooting.
So lately, I've been poking around the garden to see what I can find.
This week's garden-variety "Image of the Week" is of a garden-variety hosta
plant. This plant grows about 10 feet from where I park my car, and I shot it
one day while looking for a subject for a quick film test. The test
produced good results, and the picture ain't bad either.
Don't rely on travel for inspiration. Walk out your front door and make the mundane work for you.
Have questions, comments? Let me know what you think.
