occasional thoughts when I feel I have something worthwhile to say!​

Computer gliches.

We were told That computers were going to make life much easier for the world, but I've found them to be work demanding and frustration building! However, I'm getting over it (I hope) as I learn more.

​The trouble is that many of us who use computers today were brought up in a non - computer age and our brains don't seem to work quite adequately when it comes to computer thinking. I'm very fortunate – I have a 15 year old grandson, Samuel, who is usually able to straighten me out.

You may be wondering why I am talking about this?  Well, over the last week or two (attempting to speed up my computer and make Final Cut Pro X, a film editing program work properly), a friend and I decided to rebuild my computer and in the process I lost my emails, addresses, etc.

Many people have been receiving my blogs and have written to me asking questions about DVDs, painting classes, materials, etc, so this is really just an attempt to tell you that if you have written, and have not received a reply, I do apologise and ask if you would just write again please but on a different email address:    johncrumpartist@me.com  Thanks!

​I've found this to have been a very busy year. With filming and editing, taking classes (even in Australia this year!) and of course my own painting and framing, time seems to have flown.


Despite all that, I've been aiming at doing a blog every month  but, as in the past, I've only managed three this year, and that's counting this one!! However, the New Year is coming. I'm certainly not going to be making New Year resolutions – but I will aim to do better.

In the meantime my best wishes for a good holiday period over Christmas and the New Year and hopefully, a prosperous and fulfilling painting time next year.

Hey, John, How are you? Listen, I just wanted to whine a little. I haven't received any newsletter updates since I subscribed. I have saved your new email address, in gmail. Maybe I made a mistake somewhere? Please let me know if there is a way to get updates, or if I just need to wait a while. Thanks! Keep painting!

Hi Jeremy,
I must apologise. I've been meaning to ask a more computer wise friend how to change the message that talks about video tips coming up. I simply found it too demanding trying to do video clips, painting, teaching classes, my website blogs, making painting DVDs, and have a life too!!
In the end, I decided to concentrate on painting and DVD teaching movies with just occasional blogs that have a little bit of teaching built-in.
Now..... I must find out how to change that introduction message!

Informative instruction and demonstration from a highly skilled artist. When you see John's paintings you know that he has spent many years honing his art. His mastery of colour, tone, brushwork and composition instills confidence that he knows what he talking about as a teacher. Highly recommended."
