Dan Podsobinski,

Photographer - Digital Artist

Dan is a member of Professional Photographers of America,  Nature First: The Alliance for Responsible Nature Photography, The Knoxville Arts & Culture Alliance,  Tennessee Artists Association, and the Art Guild of Tellico Village.

​

Described as "the Van Gogh of Beach Art", Dan's lifelong passion has developed with decades of travel, family, and nature photography. His skills have been refined with education by leading photographers from National Geographic Magazine and digital editing techniques by leading instructors, built on hours of experience in the darkroom spanning as far back as the 1970s.

​

Sharing the inspiration from the intro of Jimmy Buffett's One Particular Harbor, "La ora te nature"  (Long Live Nature), Dan and Tracey support the Sea Turtle Conservancy with their art as sea turtles are one of the leading indicators of the health of our oceans.

Dan's works have been selected for showings in the southeastern US, ranging from his hometown of Knoxville to Tampa with collectors spanning Seattle to San Francisco, and New York to Key West.
