Howth Harbor 241

For those of you who know me well, you know I have a very unique pho­tog­ra­phy style. I can’t be cer­tain, but I am quite sure that no other artist is using my con­cept of cre­at­ing art. The truth is, it all came to me dur­ing one of my Quan­tum Jumps and today I want to show you my lat­est mas­ter­piece. It’s cur­rently hang­ing over my man­tle piece and I am pleased to say that when friends and fam­ily come over for a visit they can’t keep their eyes off of it!

I just couldn’t wait to share it with all of you.

Before I show it to you, how­ever, I have a story you need to hear.

It was 1988 and I was in Ire­land. I saw this old trawl­ing ves­sel docked at Howth Har­bor, a quaint fish­ing vil­lage on the out­skirts of Dublin. The bow of the boat was crowded with fish­er­men, each with a pint of Guin­ness in hand. I pulled out my cam­era and took about a hun­dred pho­tos of it. Once I returned home, I devel­oped all the images put them together in a col­lage for a spe­cial show­ing at the Inter­na­tional Pho­tog­ra­phy Hall of Fame. After the show­ing I brought it home and put it in my garage where it laid for­got­ten for nearly 20 years.

Well… a few weeks ago I found it and got an amaz­ing idea.

Here is what the piece looked like when I found it:

howth-harbor-original

I brought the piece into my stu­dio and started paint­ing on the old pho­tographs. I painted a new sky and ocean then con­trasted it with the weath­ered brown boards of the dock I remem­ber so well. I touched up the boat and painted in new ropes. Before I knew it, I had a brand new piece of art right in front of me!

Here it is:

howth-harbor

I call it Howth Har­bor. I hope you enjoy it.

Please let me know what you think!

Sin­cerely,

Burt

Painting A Clearer Picture 60

I need to clear the air about some­thing here.

If you’ve been fol­low­ing me long enough, you’ll remem­ber me men­tion­ing a few times that my pho­tographs have been dis­played in the Inter­na­tional Pho­tog­ra­phy Hall of Fame.

It recently came to my atten­tion that a num­ber of peo­ple have tried con­tact­ing the Hall of Fame to ask about my pho­tographs, only to find out that the Hall of Fame has no records what­so­ever of any­one named Burt Goldman.

The rea­son for that is simple–when sub­mit­ting my work, I used a pen name. Instead of Burt Gold­man, I wanted myself to be known as Jack Bur­ton.

I did this to dif­fer­en­ti­ate my pho­tog­ra­phy work from my lec­ture mate­r­ial and writ­ings, although I must admit I never expected this sort of mis­un­der­stand­ing to hap­pen from it. I have already con­tacted the Inter­na­tional Pho­tog­ra­phy Hall of Fame and explained the situation.

So in case you were one of the peo­ple who got in touch with the Hall of Fame, I hope this paints a clearer pic­ture for you =)

My work was orig­i­nally dis­played in the Inter­na­tional Pho­tog­ra­phy Hall of Fame in 1989. Appar­ently, over the years, much of it has been archived and in a few cases lost, or mis­placed. Alas, there is only one image avail­able there now to view — that would be my 30 x 40 image of a street in Dublin, Ire­land that I named ‘Grafton Street.’

Here is a photo of it below:

Grafton Street

I apol­o­gize for any prob­lems this may have resulted in. Jack Bur­ton, is indeed Burt Gold­man. I have not cre­ated any new mon­tages of late being quite busy with other things but I will have a new image for you shortly… and yes, the new image will be signed, Burt Goldman.

Sin­cerely,

Burt

Quan­tum Jump­ing: The Deep Secret That I HaveKept Quiet For The Past 3 Decades

Quan­tum Jump­ing is a shock­ing yet immensely effec­tive tech­nique that can trans­form any­one into universe-hopping utopian beings, with the abil­ity to con­sis­tently accom­plish any goal, mas­ter any skill, and man­i­fest end­less abun­dance, health and hap­pi­ness.

99.998% Of Peo­ple (Even Bil­lion­aires) Will Never Know Their True Poten­tial?

You’ve spent your entire life sip­ping on a cock­tail of hope and action.

I hope you’ve mixed it well, because how suc­cess­ful and happy you are depends almost entirely on how you’ve bal­anced those 2 elements—and many of us sadly end up spoil­ing the drink as we pile on the hope, but go way too easy on the action.

But the rea­son for that is simple—it’s eas­ier, for instance, to dream about own­ing a house by the beach than it is to actu­ally buy one. Even with­out going into the job losses, reces­sions and crash­ing 401ks sur­round­ing us, many peo­ple would still be put off by fac­tors like.….
