Doug Beasley || My Mentor || My Friend || And Fellow Contemplative Tea Drinker…

His photographs tread lightly in between the present state, and a blurred memory. I often wonder while looking at his work, “would this moment exist if it was not witnessed?” Where we are now, is only relative with relation to where we have been before, Doug Beasley’s new book is that visual realization. Sublimely edited along the ebb and flow of life, his photographs request your presence. For if you fail to see, to understand, and acknowledge them, their shadows of existence have still been forever cast.

Congratulations Doug, there is no artist more deserving of this incredible accomplishment!!

It is why we do what we do, why we labour in basements like a freak show for days on end, only to come above finally to the looks and comments from the living, “you only have one print? What the hell where doing all this time?!” At this point it is best to smile at our critics for we know it was not just a darkroom we have been in, it is the depths of life and being, to devote oneself so completely to a single task.

One of the most confusing things for us photographers to figure out is the edition & pricing of our work. I received some wonderful help from Eric Keller the gallery owner of Soulcatcher Studios who later came to represent my work; I learned this. Basically it is ultimately up to the artist, but take into consideration a few points.

1. Edition Size

2. Print Size

3. Medium

Large Prints + Small Editions + Handmade Medium = Higher Price

A great tip I was told “don’t price yourself out of the market” It is better to increase price as the edition sells out, which offers collectors the opportunity to purchase in the beginning when your prices are lower. I have shared here an example of my price structure so it may help you setup your own structure based on your parameters. Good luck and always have fun printing!

A curated online exhibition. Selected works are inspired by the progression of the ultimate search. Unfortunately, being wrong leads to being right.

“These blood red eyes
Don’t see so good
But what’s worse is if they could
Would I change my ways?
Wasted times and broken dreams
Violent colors so obscene
It’s all I see these days.” (Dan Auerbach/Patrick Carney)

Opening the door I still smelled like the stale plane that delivered me to this final destination. I see her standing there, she was so sincere. Ah ah ah, she will be My Next Girl; little did I know, she is The Best Girl… Who recently became My Forever Girl. I tore apart the world looking for you… I love you…
