I just received this press release and thought that I’d share this information about the three outstanding photographers who will be giving talks at the Lexar Media booth at PhotoPlus Expo in NYC. I always enjoy hearing from photographers as they talk about their work. That’s what helps makes PhotoPlus Expo such a great show. Below is the full press release:

Full-Day Inkjet Printing Workshops 9/12 and 9/13

I posted information on the ImagingBuffet.com and InkjetTips.com workshop pages a few weeks ago about two upcoming full-day workshops that I’m conducting in New Brunswick, NJ at Alfa Art Gallery on Saturday, September 12 and Sunday, September 13. Some seats still remain for both workshops, which are limited to just 8 participants each. I currently have a show on exhibit at the gallery entitled East + West, featuring photographs of New York and Japan. Having the workshop at the gallery allows me to describe the prints up close, and properly lit under gallery spotlights.

The fee for either full-day workshop is just $179. I’d also like to offer a $30 discount on either of the two workshops to our readers, which is valid if you register by Thursday, 9/10.

For more information or to register for the Saturday 9/12 workshop (the discount code is embedded), visit this page.

For more information or to register for the Sunday 9/13 workshop (the discount code is embedded), visit this page.

For either day, the page will display “sold out” at the top if all 8 seats have been reserved.

All the best!

Fantastic Article about How to Get Publicity

This just came through my e-mail in-box. Author and consultant Barney Davey was recently given permission to reprint a great article by Melissa Cassera of Cassera Communications on the topic of how to get publicity.

If you’d like to rub shoulders with Oprah (ever heard of the “Oprah Effect?”), or Conan (did you see the great appearance by microscopic artist Willard Wigan on his show not too long ago?), or get a nice writeup in your local newspaper, you should read the article, which you can find here.

I recently wrote in my column on RedDogJournal.com about how much I’ve learned from artprintissues.com as well as Barney Davey’s book, How to Profit from the Art Print Market. Here’s what I wrote:

I recently finished reading Davey’s book, How to Profit from the Art Print Market. It is a fantastic resource for anyone who would like to sell art. Just the links section in the back of the book is well worth the cost. You can find a link to it as well as a free Chapter download on the Artprintissues.com blog (top right-hand corner).
