New Art. New Post.


Folks-

Believe it or not, I’ve updated my stores at CafePress more often than I do this site, which is sad because this site is supposed to advertise my CafePress stores. Not good. I’ll keep working on it, but for now, here’s an update:

My daughter, K.C., has two stores she’s opened using my account. The first one, called K.C.'s Art has items with a picture of a family under a rainbow and the words: “Children are GODS gift to Us!” The second store, K.C.'s Drawings, has a drawing she did some time ago of some happy flowers and the slogan “Always be friends.” My mom thought that one was cute enough to scan for us, and I put up the design.

In addition, I have 4 stores for my own work. Two use the daisy picture that I first put up. One is untouched at the EdlyPics store, and the other at the EdlyART store is photoshopped to bring the flower itself out more. Another store, EdlyPix, has the picture of people at the beach in backlight.

I mentioned this before, but it still kind of hurts more than 20 years later. The original slide of that picture was lost by Kodak when I ordered reprints. I have no idea if the original slide ended up being damaged, thrown out, or added to someone’s collection. I only have one print left, somewhat faded, and that’s what I scanned to make the picture for CafePress.

And the last order of business: I have added a new store with an original (non photographic) design. I did it because of a co-worker of mine at the theater who embodies this philosophy: “I’m Not SHORT—I’m CONCENTRATED!” This one is for her. I put it up at my new site: EdlyDesigns! Please check that one out and get a T-Shirt for one of you vertically-challenged friends or family members!

That’s it for this post. Hope everyone reading this is doing well and gainfully employed!
