Paintings With Soul

I knew my website program was relatively old, but I did not expect this. The operating system upgrade I performed last week rendered my website image management program obsolete. Which means there's no way to reformat images to get them onto my website.  Which means there is a website overhaul in my very near future. And which also means there is a new procedure for downloading your desktop calendar. It is now stored here , and you must go to the first comment, click on the photo, choose the "option" menu, and select the "download" feature. Every month I will send you a new link. Unless, of course, I am able to wave my website wand and get everything fixed by the end of the year. I'm not going to put any money on that, though - December is cray cray!! However, I am doing my best! Thanks, as always, for following along with my artwork, and the Happiest of Holidays to all of you, whatever and however you celebrate, may it be ex...

You can download the file   directly from my website . I've set up a couple different ways to do this, either via the photo album or a direct link. I am not an expert on operating systems, so if you don't know how to change your desktop wallpaper, please don't email me - I will indubitably steer you wrong. Your computer's help files will be more concise, more knowledgeable and more responsive than I could ever hope to be.    I've sized this to fit a standard screen height of 768 - I realize there are lots of variables that could impact how the file displays on your screen. Let me know if, once you get the file installed, there are display quality issues (keep in mind, too, that options such as "stretching to fit," "tiling" and "cropping" will impact your display, so check those first!). Thanks, as always, for following along with my artwork, Kim

    August is here - which means that last month I survived our 22nd wedding anniversary, The Man Child's graduation party, The Caped Crusaders 1st scrimmage (and playing sans ankle screws), my birthday (they are getting more painful by the year), my annual trip to Saratoga, and My Better Half starting a new job (that includes a week of 3rd shift hours - ouch!).   August will be crazy as well - I'm teaching a workshop in Traverse City, attending (GULP) college orientation with The Man Child, kicking off a season of feeding The Caped Crusader's JV football team game nite dinners, taking in a Kid Rock concert, entertaining Elizabeth St Hilaire Nelson for a week, and chaperoning The Princess's dance team trip to Cedar Point.   What's this about summer "vacation"?   To implement this month's desktop calendar, download the file  directly from my website .
