Daks : I have known both of you for quite some time now, and as this issue of TrooRa is all about connections, I thought it would be interesting to tell the story of how you guys met, and also about your artistic journey from where it all started to the kind of relationship that you have now, making art together and separately. Your story is in a lot of ways an art love story. Your connection was through art and now twenty years later you are still together and both have your own successful art practices.
Stephen & Susan : Yep! Sure, yeah! Daks : Stephen, can you give me a quick rendition of how you guys met, just for the record? Stephen : Susan and I met online when she saw my NYC photos, and we corresponded for several months and then started telephoning each other. I came over to the USA to meet her in 1999, and we got married on April 21st, 2001 after Susan got her Congressman involved to expedite my K1 Visa so I could return to the USA as her fiancé.
