PRESS KIT: NEWS RELEASES + PRINT QUALITY PHOTOS

I want to make blogging and media coverage for my art as simple as possible, so this page provides links to photos and text that should provide everything you need. If you don’t see what you’re looking for below, feel free to contact me. I’ve also collected a short list of common errors to avoid when describing the firebowls (each of these errors have occurred in print at some time).

Print quality photos of my Sculptural Firebowls are available on both Flickr and Dropbox. These collections are free for online and print use with proper attribution (Rachael Que Vargas) and a link back to: www.rachaelquevargas.com. Videos of the firebowls are available on Vimeo.

Photo Permissions and How to Download

Publication rights require artist attribution (as Rachael Que Vargas) and inclusion of URL (www.rachaelquevargas.com). Please note that the middle name is important because there are way more Rachael Vargas than you would guess.

Print quality images can be downloaded from the sets below. To download from Dropbox, click the photo you want and then click the gear icon in the lower right corner to download the image. To download from Flickr, follow these instructions. Flickr also makes it simple to embed an image on blogs and to download a variety of sizes of the image.

If you have difficulty downloading from either of these sources, email me a link to the photo you’re looking for and I will email the image (It’s better to send a link to the photo rather than a page title or description of it because I’ve uploaded literally thousands of photos over the years).

Information About the Art and the Artist

The sources below should provide most of the information you might need, but feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. To see how customers have used Sculptural firebowls in projects visit these pages on my blog:

• Firebowl design ideas for home, garden and patio
• Firebowls used in hotels, restaurants and hospitality projects

Background Info collects the basic facts and material that captures the behind-the-scenes story, or in which I was best able to illuminate the thinking behind my art and career. Some of these have good drama, some are chosen because they answer basic questions succinctly.

Interviews + Press collects the most quotable of the interviews I’ve done as well as a handful of stories that show my work from different angles.

Press Releases have been written with an eye towards engaging, literate copy and may be freely quoted at any length. I’ve tried to make them fun as well as informative.
