Spring Break 2013:
New seasons bring new opportunities. I'm ready for the snow to melt. Everybody at my house is ready to garden! #plantingseeds

President's Day 2013:
One of the blessings of living in Minnesota during winter is the time to read, write and work. Fewer distractinons allows for more focus and greater productivity. The cold can get to me, but the home fires are burning with a new texts to explore. #doublelike

Valentine's Day 2013:
So much of my life is a gift beyond measure. I love teaching. I love my family. I love making my work. #lovefest

What amazing symbol: President Obama's second inaguration day on Dr. King's Day. For all of its shortcomings, I am proud of my country. #yeswecan

Christmas time with little children is so marvelous. Our family is wealthy with love and laughter. I am showered with gifts beyond measure. #familyfun

Thanksgiving 2012:
Re-working on the most essential elements of my practice has been raising tremendously compelling questions. I am deeply grateful for the many individuals and communities who have positively contributed to my odd collage. #thanksgiving

My performance, CityWork, was part of a joint exhibition by Bethel University, the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and Northwestern College, in conjunction with ACTC's Fall Art Tour. #liveart

August 2012:
Back to school. And this term, I'm juggling my fulltime gig at Northwestern with one class of printmaking at Augsburg College as an adjunct. Its a great challenge and a good reminder of how good I've got it. Here's to "busy" as the new currency! #giterdun

midJuly:
Working with the polymathic Micah Taylor and too many cameras, I'm assembling that portfolio of performances at Allelu Farms. My only complaint: the heat. #micahtaylor

June 6-9, 2012:
At ThinkTank7, I was filled with challenging ideas and tremendous hope. I am so grateful for the work I am allowed to do, the relationships I have and the complicated world we share. #foundations

Summer 2012:
In fullfillment of the Minnesota State Arts Board Art Initiative Grant I received, I'm installing a new set of projects on an organic dairy farm in southern Minnesota. Complimenting that work, I'm finishing three portfolios: one of broadsides, one of photo documentation from performances and one suite of audio pieces that will be available in the fall (as a double vinyl album). Horray!
