All about
Seewald's sponsorships.

If you already know about Seewald's
sponsorship program click here to see what's currently available.

If not, please read the following first.

Why have hundreds of people,
photographers included,
 purchased Seewald's work
sight unseen?

They sponsor because of these many reasons:

By investing in a Seewald in advance, you save approximately 50% over 'opening night prices'! This alone is the only reason most collectors need, but read on...

You are involved, both directly and indirectly, with the actual creation of Michael's art. You not only help finance Michael's trip, but you, along with the few other sponsors, choose which photographs will actually represent that trip. You get your choice from his best images.  Sponsors, basically in order of signing up, come in one at a time (or we mail the choices) and choose the one for their home or office.  Once chosen, it's removed from the selection, and the next sponsors choose their favorite, and so on. These are then shown in exhibitions that travel the world over!

Another Seewald testimonial: Dear sponsor, why did you start collecting Seewald's art? "The subject images.  I enjoy scenes that are dramatic in concept and still bring a sense of peace and tranquility to me as the viewer.  Michael's images certainly fulfill my artistic needs in this regard." Lee Gaffrey, multi- sponsor, Encinitas, California

You will receive recognition for sponsoring, as your name will appear on each and every photograph in the edition, as part of the title, not just the one you get, which would be number 1 of the limited edition set. Your name will also appear in any books, posters, magazines, reproductions, etc. that "your photograph" is used in!

 (Most sponsors have sponsored two or more times! 
One couple, Dr Roger and Leiann Fox of Murrieta,  
California, just sponsored their thirteenth trip!!!)

One will also be reserved, with your name on it, for a museum. To be either donated or sold to them where it could be displayed, on and off, for centuries to come.

As the editions sell out, the value of your "personal original" increases accordingly.  Your photograph, as well as the others in the edition, increase in value each time the gallery sells one.  Depending on the size of the image, from $200 increases on 16"x20", up to $5,000 on the 40"x50"!
This is due to the editions being so limited.

     (All sizes combined totaling only 284 in Seewald's latest edition limit; un-heard of for someone of Seewald's stature and ability... see Seewald's museum award winning image collection and/or read the Photographers Forum magazine article on him.)

Seewald offers only a few sponsorships per trip.  He guarantees satisfaction. (But doesn't guarantee it'll be easy to choose just one favorite...Many can't get it down to only one favorite and end up purchasing their second favorite, some even more.)! 

You will own a "Seewald" that you will appreciate for the rest of your life, and that appreciates for the rest of your life!

Sponsorship prices increase regularly.

Now - a question for you. When do think would be a good time to start investing in your Seewald? ... That's right, right now.  His prices never decrease, but they do increase regularly.
