My father passed away Monday, September 15, 2008. He was diagnosed with cancer less than 3 weeks ago, went into the hospital last Monday for testing to decide which route would be best for treatment, and found out he had worse problems. By the time they released him Saturday, he could no longer walk, or move himself around. He passed Monday night after an unexpected fast decline in health. I have dedicated Ephemeral Partings to him. We will be using this image for the funeral pamphlets. When I created this piece, it made me think of loosing someone close, and waiting until we meet again. Of course, at the time, I didn’t expect any of this. To my father… I love you … may you rest in peace.

My computer is in the shop being fixed, so in the mean time, I am using my husbands, and I can’t help but notice the differences in view artwork. I’ve noticed this a time or two in the past, using other computers. It seems that newer monitors,(I guess they have an antiglare? screen) makes everything much lighter than it is. Blacks have a greyishness to them, unless it’s text, everything is just off. The layout, buttons and logo on redbubble look the same, but the images look like someone turned down the contrast, and seriously upped the lightness. Almost washed out. I can’t even imagine trying to work on art using this monitor, it would be all distorted. I know for a fact that the way the image looks on my monitor is how it prints. How many of you out there work on art on the new monitors? When you get your prints are they so much darker than you thought? If you buy someone elses work are you disappointed because it doesn’t look like what you saw? Is this something I just need to get used too? (I really don’t think I can, I like contrast!) IS THERE A WAY TO TURN IT OFF!!!!? Ok, I’m done with my mini-rant! It’s just really annoying knowing I’m not see what it is supposed to look like, then it makes me wonder, how many other people are view my work on these types of screens, and it isn’t true to the image. Like when we were setting up for my fathers funeral, and I borrowed their comp to pull up Ephemeral Partings to show everyone what I wanted to use. That screen was the same as this one, it looked about 10 shades lighter than it was. When it was printed, some of my family didn’t think it was that dark. Ok, now I’m just rambling. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

I have had this design for quite a while on other sites, not quite sure why I never uploaded it here.
