ABOUT GREG’S PHOTOGRAPHY

Few of Greg Brown’s aviation readers know that along with piloting and writing credentials, he holds a Master of Fine Arts degree with years of professional art and design experience.

From the age of 12, Greg has been an avid photographer, and from the day he earned his pilot’s license at age 19, he’s been shooting photos from aloft. Read Greg’s bio.

Well, here’s your opportunity to own spectacular prints of some of Greg’s finest photographs recorded over many years in the air.

Some have appeared with
his long-running Flying Carpet column in AOPA’s Flight Training magazine, while others are never-before-published images from his private collection.

Unless otherwise noted, all were shot from the beloved Flying Carpet Greg shares with his wife, Jean.

THE PRINTMAKING PROCESS

Each “View from the Flying Carpet” image is personally selected by the photographer, and collaboratively tuned for print with Master Printer Richard Jackson and his team.

Once the artist’s vision and parameters are set, Richard’s team optimizes each image and produces a test print for critical evaluation. Then the photographer and printing team critique the prints at Richard’s Phoenix lab.

Every refinement results in new test prints for further evaluation. This process is repeated for as many rounds as necessary to ensure an ideal final print.

When photographer and printer agree the image is perfect, identical match prints are produced for each party to ensure the finest and most accurate images regardless of paper or processing variations.

YOUR OWN “VIEW FROM THE FLYING CARPET” PRINT!

Your own fine-art print, regardless of size or edition, will be meticulously crafted under Mr. Jackson’s supervision, in conformity with his previously-described match print.

These are not giclée-style inkjet prints, but rather true photo-chemical prints yielding the brightest colors, blackest blacks, and truest fidelity. Each is custom printed on the highest quality photographic paper, and as appropriate, mounted and/or framed using archival materials.

Above and left: Greg’s larger “museum-mount” prints are bonded to Dibond aluminum-and-polyolefin sheet with museum-back subframe, with a UV-protective film laminate over the print surface. These museum-mounts are Greg’s personal favorites, but of course your print can be custom ordered traditionally matted and framed, if you prefer.

Smaller print sizes are offered conventionally matted and framed using high-quality archival materials. (Large prints can also be ordered in conventional frames.)

Right: For those on a budget: the matted 10″x14″ print fits a standard 16″ x 20″ frame available inexpensively at local craft and discount stores like Michael’s and Target.
