Fine Art Photoblog Adds 3 New Photographers

Monday, June 30th, 2008

After much deliberation and several rounds of voting, the members of the Fine Art Photoblog are please to announce the addition of three new photographers to the group.

mathias pastwa, fine art photographerMathias Pastwa

With a flair for the industrial and an obvious technical command of the medium, Mathias brings a refined yet gritty edge to the group, with clean compositions and saturation of color giving his work a modern but nonetheless unique style.

dawn leblanc, fine art photographerDawn LeBlanc

A simple balance of light and shadow, coupled with her eye for crisp lines, Dawn brings her observations of smaller worlds into our group, a welcome addition to a circle of predominately outdoor shooters.

william fawcett, fine art photographerWilliam Fawcett

Exhibiting both urban and natural landscape panoramas of an epic quality, William has strengthened our existing range of landscape photography. He shows a personal touch to wide format compositions that is all too rare in this medium.

Thank you once again to everyone who submitted work. The decision process was not easy, 44 submissions were made, the vast majority of which were outstanding. However in the end, we could only pick three.

I’d also like to thank Elizabeth Cecil, a fellow photographer, for helping us with the selection process.

Don’t forget to watch for posts from our newest members on fineartphotoblog.com in the very near future.

Photoblog Call For Entries

FineArtPhotoblog.com, a side project I sort of fell backwards into, has been running for nearly four months now. Originally the creation of Brian Auer and ultimately featuring six other photographers including myself, the idea was to have a place to share and promote our best work and offer fine art prints for sale. Since the site launched in February, we’ve seen a fair amount of steady growth in terms of targeted traffic, readership and of course content, however we are always looking for new ways to improve the site as a whole.

After some debate and a little planning, we have decided it may be time to add one or two more photographers. We are having an open call for portfolios with a deadline of June 2nd. Anyone out there who’d like to join the Fine Art Photoblog should feel free to submit. If you are in fact interested in submitting, Brian has posted the guidelines and submission form on his blog.

Please keep in mind that this is not a commitment to be taken lightly. Everyone who contributes to the site is asked to do so consistently on a weekly basis, or not at all. This is something we have all put a lot of time and effort into, and we will expect nothing less from new members.

If you feel your work would be a good fit, and are willing to put in the effort, please think about submitting your portfolio for consideration. The maximum amount of images is 20, but please submit at least 10. Again, the guidelines and submission form are posted here.
