News and Future Plans
By Michael Sheehan
I am thrilled to announce Guy Davis's latest release, "On Air," www.guydavis.com, on which I landed the cover artwork.
Shortly after Guy Davis's release, my Dear Friends, Earthbound, released their new CD, Cold Mountain, in which I have a couple of significant images on. Certainly the music on both of these CD's is worth parting with some cash.
My plans for the Spring term are to continue taking three classes at University Of Alabama in Birmingham and teach Beginning and Advanced Photographic Art at Indian Springs School. This will also be my third season as Assistant Baseball Coach at ISS. I am proud to say my hard work paid off this past semester, as I accumulated straight A's at UAB, which included a couple of extremely difficult classes.
I am very happy to announce that aside from a few glitches, the website is now "Current."
It has been about a year and a half since the release, but I still want folks to know about The Acoff Family Singers's inaugural release, "About The Father's Business", in which I provided the cover art and all photography. These incredible vocalists possess serious power in their gospel music.
We lost the publisher who we planned on doing my book but someone else has stepped to the plate and offered to finance it. We will see. I will publish a book of my best work if it is the last thing I do on this planet.
It appears the movie about me on Endorphin.com is no longer available for viewing. I cannot complain because the owner, Bob Franco has been most gracious for the past five years in having it available for public viewing. Thanks very much Bob!
In September 2004, the CD "You Were There For Me" by Peter Rowan and Tony Rice was released featuring my artwork on the cover and on the CD itself. It is a great piece of music by two people I greatly admire.
I am continuing my teaching endeavors at Indian Springs School where I am "Artist In Residence". The Faculty Art Show this year will be in April on Alumni Weekend and will include Mel Machen, Art Teacher and Myself and perhaps others To Be Announced.
Springfest '06 was a wonderful success and we had a chance to showcase the new Magnolia Music and Events 10th Anniversary Celebration magazine which features stories by festival patrons as well as all my photography. We are very proud. Purchases can be made from my home page or by visiting www.magmusic.com
I also want to thank all my friends for their support during my successful radiation treatment I received two years ago. My doctor says the treatment worked and I get to stick around a while longer.
