Hi friends & visitors!
Not sure what happened, but 2 of my websites are completely down. It appears my web host has closed or shut down his site/ business…mmmmmmm?
Everything disappeared this week…suddenly!
Not sure what is going on…
www.mypetsperm.com (site down for technical difficulties)
www.bethannshannon.com (site down for technical difficulties)
Anyway, in the mean time, I’m investigating the situation & will probably have to hunt for a new web host.
Unfortunately, I’m traveling at the moment, so, won’t be able to fix it until November. I did put a notice on Face Book that I was looking for a new web host & most people said I should go with “GO DADDY”. I will certainly check them out!
So, if you want to see my work, please go to:

Alien One Eyed Guys by Bethann Shannon
I’ll be traveling this month with my band of creative artists to SoWA Open Market in Boston on Sunday Sept 13th! WOW! I haven’t been to Boston since I was 21! During that time I was a Flight Attendant for TWA and based in Boston…I must say it was one of the happiest times of my life and one of my favorite places to live! Unfortunately I was laid off & my whole life went in a different direction! ART! Go figure!
I am bringing many Day of the Dead and Frida Kahlo folk paintings on wood…and yes! I will be bringing the SPERM ART I am so famous for!
I really hope you can stop by!
BTW, if you mention you read my blog about this event, I’ll give you 20% off! Look for The Berkshire Made group & I will have lots of Frida’s at my table! Can’t wait to see ya!

The Art Angel is all about keeping the arts alive!
I just discovered this new web site !
www.KickStarter.com
AWESOME! It helps people get funding for their projects! Brilliant!
Not having enough money has certainly stopped me from many of my projects and I’m sure there are many, many people who’s dreams have been killed off because of lack of funds!
I LOVE the site & the whole concept and there are some GREAT projects you can donate to! Check it out! Really Interesting! I hope I can post my pet project on there…here is what I wrote:
THE ART ANGEL ~ Art Collaborations ~
My wish is to bring ART into peoples lives…whether it be painting a child’s face or leading a collaborative art event…I’m an advocate for the arts & keeping them alive. I love to work with families and take them away from the TV or Internet and help them relate in a different way with my workshop called “Canvas Dance” . In this workshop each person is given a blank canvas, which they sign and start painting for 5 min. with music playing in the background. Then the canvas is passed around to the next person, and around and around. Thoughts & conversations are documented (and read out loud later). When the paintings are finished, the group joins in to name each one! Everything is written down & copied for everyone to keep to remember the fun shared in this experience. Each person also takes home a canvas with all the groups energy and creativity! It is very fun & bonding! My dream is to take this into schools & homes but also to the streets and to prisons…I believe in the healing power of art and people connecting through art. I would like to get funding to travel across country filming a documentary doing this collaborative art workshop. I have lead many Canvas Dance collaborative events, with all age groups, since 1999. I am a witness to the magic of bringing people together through ART!
As “The Art Angel”, this is my mission!
______________________________________________________
…not only my “mission” but my passion & hearts desire compared to all my other projects…bringing people together through art is so rewarding! I’m all about collaboration because we’re all writing this story!
