I’ve done lots of website editing. It’s calming… like shampooing… wash, rinse, repeat. The shampoo directions don’t say “wash, rinse, repeat once”. No, it says, “wash, rinse, repeat”. It takes a whole bottle to get my head clean. If this website had another name, it’d be Calm Olive Branch Shampoo.

” A breath of fresh air”

I built Ed’s Art Net for my family and me. Daddy, pop-pop’s wacky old art asylum. My calming refuge in a stormy world. A web “book” the grandkids might like to read when they’re old enough.

Organic intelligence (OI)

I haven’t explored using AI. Nothing in Ed’s Art Net is designed using artificial intelligence. Computers are not smart. People are smart. People are empathetic. People can know what you meant. Computers can’t feel your joy or sense your pain. We can love computers, but they are not our “buddy”, they’re an occasionally annoying service tool that can help us with mundane tasks.

I’ve been proofreading and editing for a long time

online since September 2007
…but not the same

I started out in 2007 not knowing what I was doing. I just had a keen desire to build a website to show my work. It’s been fun and challenging, kinda like cleaning up a mess in the yard DURING a storm. But it got easier after I retired. Efforts entered a major paradigm shift when I discovered how to build text hyperlinks.

In website informational conclusion…

If Ed’s Art Net were to be parental rated, it would be PG-13. Some of my artwork and writing might scare young kids.

This web place isn’t without cyber criminal safeguards, but I don’t expect the world to end if Ed’s Art Net goes offline. 😜

It’s my hope that this website remains online for a long time after I’m gone. It would be a fun way to “speak” to my kids kid’s kids that I likely won’t see in this lifetime. ❤️

Thanks for spending time with me

I’ve been told my website sounds a lot like preaching. I’m not a preacher. I’m a commonologist, husband, father, and pop-pop who sounds a lot like a preacher on his website.

It is what it is.
