Preview Greg Brown’s Fine Art Metal Prints on your home or office wall!

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!

“New Beginnings: Return to Flight after 9/11,” Greg Brown’s Cockpit Adventures from the Flying Carpet Podcast

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.

“New Beginnings; Return to Flight after 9/11,” Greg’s Podcast*

When all US civilian aircraft were grounded following the 9/11 terrorism tragedy, we pilots were left with no idea of when, if ever, we might return to the sky. But eventually that special day did arrive when aviators could return to flight. That’s what this story is about.

Of course being grounded could not generate a fraction of the pain experienced by 9/11 survivors and families who lost loved ones in the attacks. Yet this account does reflect how that day’s horrific events affected all Americans in lasting ways, including us in the aviation community.
