MICHAEL SAMUELSON PUBLICATIONS

& FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY

Moments…Not Years

Welcome to my gallery! Come in from the cold, hot, wet, dry, snowy, and dusty weather! Soak in the art and browse for as long as you wish. We are open twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year, including Sundays and holidays.

We never close!

Of course, you and I are artists. We all are. And, as artists, we are in a perpetual state of study and fine-tuning. That’s the beauty of art; there is no endpoint and no perfection. There is only the constant internal cajoling to get better. An “ants-in-the-pants” quest to experience and share spirit-lifting, bone-shaking moments!

In the Samuelson Gallery, there is no coaxing or coaching to purchase. Of course, if you see something that shakes your bones and lifts your spirit, go for it! Total satisfaction guaranteed.

I am a citizen of this planet. I am sometimes proud, sad, frightened, and confused. But most often, I am joyful, grateful, and curious. My art captures all these emotions. I pledge that this gallery represents my best effort to deliver meaningful and memorable photographic art, books, and thought-provoking commentary.

In addition to being a photographer and author of five published books, I am a high-altitude adventurer, a husband, a father, and a grandfather. I began this journey about seventy-five years ago. I expect that another seventy-five years should just about do it.

One more thing: Free hot coffee and donuts are at the back of the gallery! Okay, I made up that last part. You’ll have to bring your own coffee and donuts.

ABOUT MICHAEL SAMUELSON

Michael, a photo artist and a published author of 5 books, is an avid world trekker with high altitude mountain treks logged in Asia, Europe, Africa, South America, Alaska and the US lower 48. All adventures came after the age of 50 and after a cancer diagnosis, surgery, and recovery.

With the initial cancer diagnosis came well-intended advice to slow down, take it easy, and reflect on pleasant days, past. He said, “No, but thank you for caring.” Then, with his family’s blessing and support, he took a deep breath, laced up his boots, and took off to see the world. Camera and pen, in hand.
