Blue Planet Photography

Welcome to the new blog. I’m working out the learning curve, so bear with me. I hope to have the older content transferred over here this week.  New applications always take a little while to learn. Since Blogger has switched to a Google-owned service that wants to use my content for free to promote their applications, I’ve moved over to Wordpress, which is offered by my web host. I will need to wait for Wordpress to update their import tool to be able to import from the new Google Blogger so I can get the rest of my content over here. 

Anyway, this post is about the completion of the mural paintings on the west wall. I will need to go back over some of the work in the spring, particularly to strengthen some lines in the fourth mural, the Lake Mead photo on the far right. This image is of George Baggley (center, in the zig-zag patterned shirt) with the Governors of Nevada and Arizona. I finished painting the final photo just before it got too cold.

I will be making future updates with information about George Baggley throughout the winter. Stay tuned. As always, I appreciate your comments.

I apologize for the lack of updates on this project. The weather has put a hold on things for a few more days. Cold weather and painting doesn’t mix well, and neither does rain. I’m going to be renting a propane heater to keep the work area warm, and setting up my 10′x10′ canopy around the final photo on the west side of the building. This photo is actually about 1/4 done at this point, I’ve just been waiting to get back to finish it. The rest of the project will have to wait until warmer weather. I’ll get photos of the west side when that is done (still a couple remaining finishing touches that will be completed in the spring).

I know it’s late, but I’ve created a photo calendar. Fitting into a CD case, the case lid folds over to form the base. Each month is on a separate sheet. The calendar adds an artistic touch to home or office. Custom calendars are available and existing designs can be modified to include corporate branding.

Calendars are $15.00 each plus shipping and you can see all months and order at my website
