So it comes to that time of year again and the dreaded ‘C’ word, no not that one, the ‘Christmas’ word.
Many people love wall art, but sometimes it’s so hard to get a feel for how a picture on a website will look in real life. This in turn makes it difficult to get sufficient confidence to pull the trigger on a purchase.
People want to buy quality Christmas presents but how do you demonstrate quality simply from a website?
Thats why we take to the road and display our wall art and picture gifts in the flesh at shows. This gives you the opportunity to see at close quarters just how stunning the modern wall art we supply looks in real life.
It also allows you to ask questions that simple text on a website can’t always answer. You can see the physical difference between an Acrylic print and a Metal print and have the confidence to purchase, either there and then, or go away and review the different pictures on our website and buy after consulting with the family.[/vc_column_text][vc_masonry_media_grid gap=”3″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1480435218339-b1ac34c0-f598-8″ include=”2792,2357,2765,2767,2769,2356,2770,2781,2374,2641,2370,2548,2366,2766,2362,2768,2369,2361″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]There is no doubt you will find many ideas for wall art Christmas presents on our stall. Our range features simple picture based gifts from keyrings, through to mugs, t-shirts, phone cases and notebooks up to stunning wall art that any person would be proud to display in their home. All my pictures and digital art work are totally unique and not sourced from 3rd party libraries.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Come and see us at any of the shows below and see for yourself the quality of the artwork prints. As you can see the shows are spread out across the midlands and feature both large and small events.

In connection with a few behind the scenes changes, the GDMK Images brand and product range is set to significantly increase. The first noticeable change will be an increase in the products available to buy.
In the coming days you will be able to buy many new products with my photography and digital art on. These new products will include
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”2765,2766,2767,2768,2769,2770,2771″ simple_arrows=”1″ title=”Examples of New Products”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
The second change will be the increased visibility of the GDMK Images event stall. The stall is now booked to attend 20+ events between now and Christmas including
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
The changes are for many reasons, but the predominant change was the success of the Summer Events stall. My wife had the crazy idea to take my art out to a couple of summer events with our good friends at Alizzins Cave. The reception, feedback and demand to my work was overwhelming. In short, as a result of the success of the event stall, she has taken the marketing and product range to a whole new height.
GDMK Images is primarily about supplying wall art and editorial stock imagery. The photography and creating digital art will remain my focus and will still be the central focus of GDMK Images. My wife will be taking the photographic and digital art and marketing it as unique gifts through the website and at events around the country.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
With the changes, now seems a good idea to announce the imminent launch of the GDMK Images wall art rental scheme. Very shortly, both home owners and businesses, will be able to rent wall art from GDMK Images for very affordable rates. The details will be revealed in full in the coming weeks, but essentially you will be able to rent some exceptional wall art with prices starting from £4.95 per month.
With all the changes happening, why not subscribe to the GDMK Images newsletter? You will get a heads up on all the news, a 10% discount against purchases and subscriber only discounts and offers.
Thanks for reading

Last weekend saw the official launch of the new GDMK Images t-shirts at the Shackerstone Family Festival.
There are currently 3 t-shirt designs available.
The first design features my extremely popular Vulcan Bomber digital painting. This image features a Vulcan Bomber taking off in a rainstorm.
This design is available on a Heather Grey or plain Black t-shirt.
The second design is available in white only and features English Electric Class 50 loco 50049 Defiance.
The loco is in large logo livery and is depicted under GWR lower quadrant signals.[/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid gap=”3″ item=”2161″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1457285240569-cb4d1db3-f26f-0″ include=”2548,2547,2544″][vc_column_text]
The t-shirts are available in sizes S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL and are priced at £25 + £3.50 p&p (optionally avoid p&p by collecting from Alizzins Cave)*.
For those who were enquiring at the Shackerstone Festival about the availability of childrens sizes, I can confirm that childrens sizes will be added very shortly so keep checking back for details.
The range of designs will be increased slowly over the coming weeks.
Thanks for reading and let me know what you think about the new designs
Cheers
Gary

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Our GDMK Images stall will be attending several shows during September and October. The stall will be exhibiting a large selection of images mounted on many different types of wall art products.
[ess_grid alias=”wall-art-products”]
These shows will see the debut of a new range of t-shirts. These new t-shirts feature digital art images.
The upcoming shows are …
At the GDMK Images stall you will be able to view and buy any of the 700+ images available from my art collection.
At the Shackerstone Festival we will be joined by our very good friends from Alizzins Cave.
At the shows you will be able to secure any wall art product with a £10 deposit. Full payment is then due within the next 7 days. Production time is up to 21 days from receipt of full payment, at which point the prints can be collected from the Alizzins Cave shop in Hinckley or delivered to your home for £9.50.
Here’s looking forward to seeing you at the shows.

April has been busy with quite a lot happening behind the scenes.
March ended with a visit to the Photography Show at Birminghams NEC. As usual there was a lot to see and do. I took the opportunity to look first hand at some new wall art products. As a result there will be some new additions to the catalogue for mounting images upon.
I was able to finally buy a Nikon D7200. The camera is pretty impressive and my initial reaction is positive. The D7200 feels a lot smaller in the hand than I expected. My only issue so far, is that Lightroom and Camera RAW still don’t support the new NEFs. I guess this is fair enough as all new releases take a while to get supported by 3rd party products. I am hoping when Lightroom 6 gets released (potentially this week) the NEF files will have support.
I have been looking at the first thousand or so images with Nikons View NX-I and I am impressed with the detail and resolution. I havent processed any so far as I have a structured Lightroom workflow and dont want to mess up the system – however tempted I am to get to grips with them!
Unfortunately I couldnt get the Sigma 150-600S lens at the Photography Show as planned. Following the show I did hire one for a week so I could get a sample of what the lens could do coupled to the D7200. All I can say is – WOW, what a combination!
As soon as supplies pick up I will be ordering one.
I am still reviewing and revising old blog posts as mentioned last month. Parts 2 & 3 of my Aviation Photography Techniques guide have been posted with part 4 coming over the next couple of weeks.
Both the stock photo and wall art photo portfolios are expanding with new and varied content. The new stock photography additions focus on the ongoing construction of ‘The Crescent’ shopping centre in Hinckley. There is also a good number of additions from a visit to Newton Abbot and Exeter.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid element_width=”3″ gap=”3″ item=”mediaGrid_SimpleOverlay” filter_size=”md” include=”1088,1087,1086,1085″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1450788618404-a9010b8a-dfcb-9″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The first image using this new style is shown below and depicts a World War 1 soldier. The style is evolving and I intend to upload a small range featuring more pictures in this style. Let me know your thoughts on the style.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1089″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” link=”http://www.photos.staging.gdmkimages.co.uk/digital-art/e41eb3fa9″][vc_btn title=”See Latest Wall Art” shape=”round” align=”center” color=”primary” size=”md” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fphotos.staging.gdmkimages.co.uk||”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Below are examples of the products you can mount your chosen picture onto. There are many wall art products for mounting pictures from my portfolio including –
As mentioned earlier, I will be adding some new products over the coming weeks. In the meantime have a look at my current wall art product range.[/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid element_width=”2″ gap=”1″ filter_size=”md” include=”1057,1056,1055,1054,955,956″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1450788618698-6fce6206-e156-4″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Going forward you can expect to see part 4 of my Aviation Photography Techniques series. I have two new location reports from my old blog that are being updated to reflect recent changes.
Additionally I will be visiting Budapest and Prague in the next couple of weeks. I will be adding trip reports of both these cities when I get back.
After my return I will be posting my experiences of using the new Nikon D7200 and a post about my weeks hire of the Sigma 150-600 S lens.
Thanks for taking the time to read this update and looking at my portfolio updates. Please feel free to leave any comments about the site layout and fuctionality, portfolios or anything else that comes to mind.

For those not familiar with my websites or blogs, I am a UK based photographer and primarily shoot a mixture of Urban, Transport and Editorial style scenes.
I have two main portfolios, one featuring editorial style stock photography, which is available to buy via Alamy and a wider portfolio of photographic work available to buy as wall art and picture gifts.
Previously my portfolios and general internet presence was spread over several different hosts and providers. The overhaul and new look for the GDMK Images web presence bring my Stock and Wall Art portfolios together. The intention of these changes is to make it easier for customers to find the images they want, in the format they want, all from one central hub.
Much of the imagery is available in both portfolios and, therefore, available as both Commercial Stock imagery and mounted onto wall art products and gifts.
I have chosen to go with hosted services for my portfolios as I want to free as much time as possible to undertake the most important aspect of being a photographer – taking photos.
Alamy has repeatedly demonstrated they are extremely competent in managing both client and photographers needs so I am more than happy to let them manage my stock portfolio.
All my wall art products are produced by either One Vision Imaging or Loxley Colour.
Both portfolios are extensively keyworded so searching for pictures is very straightforward.
You will also find the GDMK Images Blog on these pages. My blog will feature a mix of photography techniques, news and location reports.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from you
