October Was a Busy Month

Apart from getting a nasty put you down cold, it was the anniversary of my Mom's death, my grandson became one year old, and my brother-in-law passed into the arms of Jesus.  I also have two precious neighbors who are dealing with the hardships of life, and threatening medical issues of precious family members.  On top of that I cannot download pictures from my new computer for some reason.  So, all of October was a bust for doing art.  But I did download Gimp for my grandson to use doing a project, and he picked up on what it has taken me 6 months to learn in 30 minutes.  He said his project looked professional, except for the fact that the wizard we used cut about 1/2 inch off of everyone's printed project when it printed and no one could fix it.  At least the hours we spent trying, was something no one else could fix either.  Not good that it takes a computer IT guy to do home work.  But doing work with my grand son inspired me to get back behind the art.  Have been testing over one hundred names for a new blog that will feature some wonderful artists. Only 6 were not already in use, and all but two of those seemed like something that didn't represent us all.  But I thought of a new one tonight so we will see where it goes.  It's Punkin Time!!! I have a gourd to paint. So maybe I will get a picture of that up.  Til next time... C
