I’ve done lots of website proofreading and editing. It’s been 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 eds-art.net for my family and me. Daddy, pop-pop’s wacky old art asylum. A calming refuge in a stormy world. A web “book” the grandkids might like to read when they’re old enough.
I’ve been editing my website for a long time
online since September 2007
…but not the same
I started out NOT knowing what I was doing. I just had a keen desire to show off my artwork. Development of purpose has been a lengthy learning process… Ed’s Art Net has been my self-help therapist.
God deserves all the love and credit for any of this site’s good messaging.
Development for me, has been like cleaning up a mess in the yard during a storm.
Efforts became easier after I first retired in 2020, entering a major paradigm shift when I discovered how to build text hyperlinks.
I find mistakes and wording that could be improved every time I proofread, so I’ve no idea if I’ll ever finish editing.
In website informational conclusion…
I’ve been told eds-art.net gives folks pause to think. Thinking can lead to understanding. I hope I’m easy to understand without a whole lot of thinking. Just know that I love you and I’m writing from the heart just like with my drawing and painting. I’ve always focused on an imaginary real loving audience, ever since I was a kid drawing cars and airplanes.
This website is a good way to “speak” to my kids kid’s kids that I likely won’t see in this lifetime. Walt Disney said it was ‘fun to do the impossible’… maybe leaving something that speaks to our kids kid’s kids is a part of what he was talking about.
I’ve also been told my website sounds a lot like preaching. I’m not a preacher. I’m a commonologist, husband, father, and pop-pop who sometimes sounds like a preacher on his website.
It is what it is. 😬
This web place isn’t without cyber criminal safeguards, but while I do expect the world to end someday, I don’t expect it to end just because eds-art.net goes offline
