Fandom Planet Special: Focus on Emily Dolenz

Specializing in photography for the individual and/or the corporate setting, Emily Dolenz, daughter of actor/director/singer/Monkee  Micky Dolenz, sells matted and framed prints of her spectacular photographic images. Her images are full of color and the subject matter changes from architectural elements to the natural world. Emily Dolenz’s images express her angle on the world and are designed to show the viewer her view of a normal scene or object.

Emily joins Tim from her studio in Washington DC to discuss her development as an artist, the challenges of making a living as an artist and her valiant struggle with cerebral palsy. Fandom Planet loves to encourage artists of all sorts and Emily’s magnificent work is exemplary of one more artist to overcame odds to become successful. We love stories like this.
