Bright Afternoon, a new painting

Bright Afternoon, oil 30 x 36 in.

Our California hills are vivid under clear skies this time of year. Jim has chosen a single oak to showcase this bright landscape.

Jim hikes daily in these hills and knows them well. That personal knowledge shows through his paintings.

New Promessi Landscape

The Nevada Cottonwoods are brilliant this time of year. Jim has captured them in oil on a 22 x 28 in. canvas. See this and more landscape paintings on Jim's Painting Site.

Subscription issues

I'm now learning to bring visitors back to my BLOG via the subscription/syndication process. It's easy for my visitors and a good way to make sure they receive the most current posts.

Testing Syndications

Using syndications will help my subscribers know when there is an update to the BLOG.

Hold my Hand

Where can I get a copy of "Hold my Hand" by Glenys Carl? I know the story of Scott's accident and ensuing care by his mother and half the population of Sydney, Australia.

The book has been published in England, but I can't find a copy here in the US.

CGI scripts, SSI complications

Thought I could master these, but thank goodness I've found help.

Portfolio photo search/PC hunt

Now, where did I hide those original images?
Fried the PC yesterday. Now we have to buy a new camera AND a new computer. Maybe this time we'll buy a laptop and then World...here we come!

So what is the secret to other bloggers finding this blog?

Pentax in the pool

While checking the temperature of the hot tub in Santa Barbara, the Pentax slipped off Jim's arm and into the very hot water. Darn! Looks like we'll be camera shopping again.

Anyone have a good solution for a digital projector that can take images from a flash drive, avoiding the purchase of yet, another computer?

Gallery hunting

Santa Barbara and environs bound. Which gallery will be the right venue for Promessi paintings?
Anyone want to suggest a gallery?
