Thanksgiving Day ~ Every Day Prayer~
Thank you for my head, my heart,
my hands, my feet.
Thank you for my shelter and food to eat.
Thank you for my eyes, my nose, my ears, my voice…
Thank you for my freedom…my freedom of choice!

We can’t stop smiling in our home!
Thank you for bringing back that good feeling!
WE LOVE YOU MAN!
My roommate went out & bought 2 American flags this morning &
hung them out for the world to see!
You’ve really made an impact & touched our hearts!
THANK YOU OBAMA!
love,
The Art Angel

I’m still traveling back & forth from DC to Lenox!
Both places have displayed voluptuous, abundant,
bold, breathtaking clouds and skies!
My head was in the clouds everywhere I went!
I couldn’t stop staring at the sky!
I have some excellent pictures of some excellent skies!
Some say …”Stop & smell the flowers”
I’d like to add…
STOP AND SEE THE SKY!
The sky brings me so much JOY!
I really do live for clouds!
BIG SKY ~ BIG SIGH
ALMOST A SMILEY FACE!
I had to take this picture!
I think it’s a good sign when the sky is SMILING!
HAVE A HAPPY & SAFE HOLIDAY EVERYBODY!
WITH LOVE,
THE ART ANGEL

I love the SKY!
The sky is HEAVENLY!
I live for clouds!
Each sky I see is a work of art, each with a feeling, each with a story…
some filled with intense drama!
Some simply like a storybook!
I find great happiness gazing at the sky.
It almost feels like a longing !
When I was 21 I was a flight attendant for TWA.
It was my favorite job ever…because of the sky !
(and I also love people)…
I was thrilled and excited to be up there! So beautiful!
I found abundant joy in that job…
then I was laid off.
Now, I look up everyday and still think Heaven is just Heavenly!
I paint it when I can and love the painters who paint it well, like Magritte,
and my artist father Joe Shannon…
I started taking daily pictues of the sky this month
and will start a collection of excellent skies!
The 2 places I lived or visited that had the best skies was in
MONTANA, which is called “BIG SKY COUNTRY”…
and ASHEVILLE, NC, called “Land Of The Sky”…
both places had breath taking skies
that put you in a total humble state of AWE!
Third up for me would be San Francisco…
amazing drama with the clouds & fog over Golden Gate Bridge!
OH! THE SKY!
“SIGH”

My friend Peter Taussig is making short films about “interesting people/ artists”, and he asked if he could film me… his video about me is now posted on UTUBE ~ THE ART ANGEL

I would post it here… but I’m a Neanderthal with computers & don’t know how!!
You want to know how to make God Laugh?
Tell him your plans!
Old joke…I know… but it still rings so very true! I know, personally, I made a whole bunch of plans in my life…but GOD, (The Universe, whatever the name!), had other plans for me…so, as usual, I surrender to this path and continue to trust this process & remain grateful & and think positively, even through difficult times…
especially
through difficult times.
The only real Heaven I know on earth is …with children.
They are all about LOVE…I am so grateful for the children in my life!
I’m sending you all kisses in the air! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I hope I can help make the world a more loving place for you!

Hi! I’m back from the DC area, where I was able to take care of some business, see some friends and family AND run around wearing my angel wings! I got some photos & film to add to my documentary, which once I get some technical help, I’ll post some pics of my adventure with wings!
I LOVE wearing my wings in public! People are 98% of the time grinning severely! This time I carried paper hearts with me & handed them out to people who smiled at me or stopped to talk.
At one point I was at Union Station in DC and had to kill 7 hours! I walked around a lot, so, many people saw me. At one point I sat down & started drawing …when I turned around I found 4 children staring at me. They started asking me questions…5 minutes later, I had 8 children sitting with me…all drawing with me! It was so cute!
I’m kind of a kid magnet…with or without the wings!
People were very kind and gave me FREE things! I was at Port Authority, Union Station & on the MARC train. Sometimes on this trip the world seemed magical.
I’m now back in The Berkshires and putting all I got into feeling healthy & happy! Updating my ETSY.com shops & Cafepress.com.

Unfortunately, I’m still dealing with my legal issue of my business flooding…almost 5 years ago! It’s so stressful to carry the financial burden I was left with! Hopefully, it won’t go on another year!
In the meantime, I just want to be POSITIVE and live my life in health & love!
I send BIG Wishes & Big Kisses to all in this NEW YEAR!
