sunday

Fewer and farther inbetween wasn't my goal for posting on this blog, but I have been getting more work done in terms of my thesis, the student newspaper, and reading for the two book clubs I have this week (one professional and one personal.) Sorry, real life trumps the screen /always.

Good news though, so I thought I'd break the ice for the first time in several weeks.

In addition to a solo show at the Gage Gallery at Augsburg College in 2007
and a 5 ft. show at Gallery 360 in Mpls in August

Stephen has been offered a solo show at the Taube Museum of Art in Minot, ND
either in September if he can fill the main gallery
or later this year or in 2007 if he has less work to show.

Congratulations! This is great news because as you know if you have submitted work for shows before, the rejection letters rush in more than the acceptance letters.

This is only one facet of Stephen's work; he has two other "sides" to his professional work: wedding photography (7 weddings booked for this upcoming season so far) and the business side... just shot for Minnesota Monthly, Augsburg three days a week, headshots, theater shots, etc. He is a busy freelancer and has really built his business. Which, I might add, was a little nerve-wracking for me when we got married. Teachers are on contracts and are guaranteed wages and benefits, so the whole piece-it-together thing was foreign to me. But I haven't met many people who work harder than Stephen and still cook supper every night, so it shouldn't be a surprise! And he still plays Narnia-Polly Pockets with Abbey, too =)

Speaking of Abbey, we have loads upon loads to Girl Scout Cookies to deliver. And eat. And go to the gym to work off. What a great time of year... =)
