Ever wonder how your favorite(s) of my Fine Art Metal Prints would look on your wall?

  • Can’t decide which photograph would look best in your special spot?
  • Need help visualizing the ideal print size to fit your wall?

Well, select your desired print(s), send me a snapshot of your wall, and I’ll mock it up for you!

All I’ll need are:

  • A sharp, relatively straight-on photo of your wall including surrounding furnishings.
  • A measurement or two of something in the photo for scale. (Wall, window, picture, piece of furniture, etc.)
  • Something white in the picture—trim, moldings, or even a piece of white paper. (Helps me get your home’s colors correct.)
  • Your print choice(s).

To see how your favorite Greg Brown print(s) would look on your wall, contact me with details and I’ll respond with how to proceed!

Thank you, friend, fellow pilot, and Master Printer Richard Jackson (above left) for starting me down this path, and former Northern Arizona University College of Arts & Letters Dean Michael Vincent for inviting this first solo exhibition that led to numerous others.

And a special thanks to all you good folks who have supported my passions for flying and photography by investing in my Views from the Flying Carpet and “Down to Earth” series Fine Art Metal Prints, Pilot Achievement Plaques, and Photo Wall Calendars since then!

Here’s wishing you the Happiest and Healthiest 2023!

“Vertigo! Some Lessons a Pilot Never Forgets…” Greg Brown’s Flying Carpet Podcast #25

flying adventures, Greg's photographs, Greg's Podcasts, life & love

Ride along with renowned aviator, writer, and photographer Greg Brown in his light airplane, the Flying Carpet, as he searches behind clouds for the real America, experiencing countless aerial adventures along the way.

Listen to “Vertigo!” Greg’s Flying Carpet Podcast Flight #25

Some Lessons a Pilot Never Forgets…

“So this must be Vertigo,” I thought. Nausea circled my gut like the snowflakes orbiting my propeller. I peered out the windshield for landmarks, but snow obscured all but a tiny spot of ground beneath me, even at an altitude of only a thousand feet.

To make matters worse, my VOR navigational receiver had obviously failed. How could I possibly have drifted so far off course as it suggested, on a flight of only 40 miles.

It was almost Christmas, and I was a young University of Illinois student transporting precious parts for my motorcycle home to Champaign…
