As mentioned earlier, I submitted three pieces to this year’s Horzontal Grandeur show hosted by the Stevens County History Museum. I’m happy to say that two of the three were accepted (above and below).

There will be an opening reception on Friday, 8 July 2011, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm, and it would be super cool to see a lot of people there! Sadly, I won’t actually be one of those people, as Tom and I will be leaving day after tomorrow for a month-long road trip through New England, visiting 10 colleges in 30 days. The ever fabulous Weather Grrrl should be able to attend, however, so you can visit with her and talk about art. :-)

Eeeek! I have photos hanging in an art gallery!

Not as part of an art exhibition, to be fair, but it is an art gallery, and I’m easily excited :-).

As mentioned earlier, I submitted a number of photos for consideration in a call for art for UMM’s new Welcome Center. Much to my delight two photos were in fact chosen, being I think the first two pieces of mine to ever be purchased as art (as opposed to illustration or journalism). The first is the train panorama above, and the second is the turbine shot below.

Michael Eble (the curator for UMM’s HFA Gallery) also asked if he could exhibit four other photos (below) that I submitted in the 2010 Celebration exhibition in the HFA Gallery! They’re hanging now (in the upper level down at the end). There will be special showings during Founders Weekend, September 23–26 and Homecoming Weekend, October 8–10, and the exhibit closes on 16 October.
