This was a presentation to show and explain the benefits of creating a personal blog to help promote one's fine art photography. My blog began on July 4th, 2008 as a mix of personal, fine art and portrait posts. I've since separated my fine art and portrait blogs. This site has become my portrait blog and <a href="http://williamzuback.blogspot.com/">http://williamzuback.blogspot.com</a> has become my fine art blog.<br />
<br />
New to blogging at the time, I created a post in August of 2008 titled, <a href="http://backtothezunews.blogspot.com/2008/08/new-by-mattel-beach-barbie.html" target="_blank">New by Mattel, Beach Barbie</a>. Months later I had a comment on this post by someone named, <a href="http://eyeonlife.squarespace.com/" target="_blank">Frieda Babbley</a>. Not only did she comment, I believe she may have become my first "follower" on my BacktotheZu News blog. I saw this and knowing nothing about "followers" or "following" other peoples blogs I found this to be odd. Why would this person I don't know, "follow" me? Well, it didn't take me long to understand this aspect of blogging. Frieda and I quickly became internet friends that shared an interest in writing, family and art. She became a big fan and conduit for my original "<a href="http://backtothezunews.blogspot.com/2009/02/what-have-you-read-lately.html" target="_blank">Book Passages</a>" photography series and I became a big fan of her poetry and short story writing. She helped spread the word of my Book Passages project to people in her internet and writing circles.<br />
<br />
Then came Facebook. Frieda and I became friends and our friendship grew. I became friends with her husband on Facebook too and we continue to enjoy "liking" and commenting on each others posts. My most recent project, <a href="http://artswithoutborders-eddee.blogspot.com/2011/10/madonna-child-interpreted.html?spref=bl" target="_blank">Madonna & Child: Interpreted</a> brought Frieda and my creative skills together once more. I curated this art exhibit with 31 visual artists and 3 writers providing their interpretation of this iconic subject. Frieda contributed an essay for the show and the exhibition catalog. This weekend I get to meet her and her family as they make the 6-8 hour journey to Milwaukee to see the Madonna & Child: Interpreted exhibit. Sunday I get to meet in person this wonderful writer and her family. How cool is that? I think it's very, very cool.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589722752603511645.post-36166415273843175592011-11-14T15:37:00.001-08:002011-11-14T15:38:21.053-08:00Joyce Carol Oates<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A three way triangle. One person sees and writes, one person reads and relates and an artist brings to light an idea of what the vision is. What do these diverse connections tell the viewer about the nature of perception and life? The essence of this project is the complexity of human communication. The beauty of this project is deeper and richer than just the pictures. It's in the way that we each communicate our idea's and emotions to each other and try to understand how this world works.

<br />I haven't written a poem in a very long time. When my kids were younger I traveled an average of 7 days a month. This poem which is in honor of my daughter graduating from high school was written about eleven years ago. It's based on conversations I've had with my daughter, McKenzie, usually during breakfast or in the car. I wrote this poem with tears in my eyes from Rye, New York. I was there doing a photo shoot. That evening in my hotel room I called home, like I did every night I was on the road, to talk to the family. When Kenzie got on the phone she was so excited to tell me about a boy in her, class that she liked, and was able to sit next to on the bus that day. I was happy and excited for her and her special day but sad knowing how much better this story would have been if she was sharing it while we had dinner that evening. Seeing the sparkle in her eyes and the tone of her voice sharing it for all to hear. With the conversation over I took a walk around the hotel grounds, went back to my room and poured out this poem for my daughter.

Since starting a website specific to my fine art photography, (<a href="http://www.williamzuback.com/">william zuback fine art photographs</a>), I have revamped my <a href="http://www.backtothezu.com/">BacktotheZu Studios</a> website to concentrate only on portraiture. I except commissioned portraits for personal as well as editorial needs. Check out the updates portraits site and the next time you desire a quality portrait contact me.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
