Collaboration
Two Mixed-media Pieces Embody ARTvision's Year of Collaboration

(ATLANTA :: 18 Dec. 2009) -
Kimber Herndon, our copper-artist
extraordinaire, has taken two of my
photographs and turned them into unearthed
treasure.
“HRH” is a shot of my treasured pup Triscuit as she sat in the morning sun one day. I was working on something else, and she jumped into the line of the rising sun on the living room chair, on her own - which, actually, should surprise no one given her predilection for attention. (more)
And “Moments that
Matter” comes to ARTvision
by way of the wedding of Bill Brennan and Jim
Verraros - an event I
attended and shot with my D80.
Lots of great images came out of that event, this one included. Kimber took inspiration from the photo to create this imposing piece - which is the interpreted photo painted on canvas mounted on perforated steel. (more)
“HRH” is offered for a donation of $200. “Moments that Matter” is offered for a donation of $595. -WP

Hey Tennis Fans: Roger's U.S. Open Leg Shot Is On The Way
Nov 26 2009 10:38 AM
(ATLANTA :: 26
November 2009) You might call it the shot seen
‘round the world in 2009.
As Roger Federer was closing out his semi-final match at the 2009 U.S. Open, our newest ARTvision Artist, Rob Polishook, was sitting in the first row to capture the through-the-leg precision stroke that won the point and, soon afterward, the match.
So, “The Shot,” photographed on-site that day by Rob, is going to be offered for ARTvision buyers as a five-picture sequence that shows Roger doing his thing. Rob is offering two pieces this year, the aforementioned Federer sequence, as well as “Ready, Set Dive,” a beautiful photo of the elite para-triathlete men diving off of a NYC pier.
When you combine Atlanta’s famous preference for tennis (combined player estimates with ALTA, ATTA, K-Swiss and USTA are more than 100,000 participants) with a chance to own a piece of tennis/Federer history - and add in your support for Positive Impact - the choice to buy is easy!
Rob’s full artist page and photo information to follow on our launch day, 1 December 2009.
And make sure to thank our Michele Segre, ARTvision Director of Artist Outreach and multi-year ARTvision buyer, for connecting us with Rob.
