It is with a very grateful heart that I share some bittersweet news. The decision has been made to bring the print publication of Painting World Magazine to a close.

This has been a beautiful journey, and I am incredibly proud to have served the last remaining print magazine for the decorative painting community.

To honor your support and keep our history alive, our entire digital library and back-issue archive will remain open and accessible to all current subscribers until December 31, 2026, so you can download your favorite patterns and projects. All automatic renewals have been turned off.

Active subscribers, if you need help navigating the login process or downloading the magazines, please email me at [email protected].

Thank you for your encouragement, friendship, and unwavering support over the years.

Please note- I will be out of the office for a little over a week from today. I will return to regular business matters once back in the office.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Kole
