Mat Hughes. Photographic Artist. That's the thing. To make this whole thing work, you need to get your hands dirty. It can't just be about the art. There's marketing & merchandising too! Here's me last week grabbing a stack of pallets. A little power tool magic, lick o'paint and we have some double sided display stands. Its not every day you do a shop window takeover, so might as well do it well! mathughesimages.com #melbourneframers #elwoodframingstudio #elwoodvillage #bayside #melbourneartists #elwoodbeach #visualmerchandisingideas #fineartphotographer #australianartist #recycledpallets (at Elwood, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuYOozfl26t/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12hfdzvca4wcu

Mat Hughes. Photographic Artist. Howdy People. After last weeks posts about marketing, I've been back at it, constructing display boards for a "shop window take-over" next month at a well known Elwood retailer!

So yesterday I was out on location for most of the day. I was taking a bunch of interior styling shots of my pieces of work before delivering them to galleries. The different hats I have to wear.... here is my stylist hat!

I don’t know about you but one of the hassles of digital photography and being a pedantic artist, is the sheer amount of time spent sitting at the computer. My neck is absolutely buggered at the moment and I can’t wait for delivery of a 60 year old 4x5 film camera so I can get away from the goddam screen! www.mathughesimages.com #elwoodvillage #verucasaltelwood #neckache #melbourneosteo #artistatwork #melbournecafe #albertpart #4x5 #melbourneartists #melbourneframers (at Mat Hughes Images)

Back in 2007 we cycled from Seattle to San Francisco. It rained and rained but the coastline was just stunning. Here’s some work in progress. I’ve been wanting to include some lighter more accessible work on the website. www.etsy.com/Shop/InRock #elwood #elwoodvillage #melbourneframers #pacifichighway #driftwood #melbournephotographer #blackandwhitephoto #southyarra #albertpark #beach (at Mat Hughes Images)
