THE ART ANGEL – BERKSHIRE MADE AT NoAMA
Is it a nun? A sailor? Or a man with a prayer cap in an archway?
Another “ambiguous” painting by outsider artist Bethann Shannon.

THE ART ANGEL ~ Follow Your Heart & VOTE!
THE ART ANGEL has landed in Northampton, MA
Finally! I have landed! I’ve been traveling back & forth from Lenox, Ma to DC area all Spring & Summer…
living out of a suitcase! I’m pooped!
Happy to settle in for awhile…I’ll be hitting MAIN STREET wearing my wings & doing cartoons for people,
for donations & selling my art as THE ART ANGEL!
I hope to raise money for my documentary “Message-We’re All Writing This Story”…where I’ll be dancing across country wearing my wings for PEACE! AND doing art with strangers!
I’m back doing “CANVAS DANCE” ™, Paintings For Peace workshops! YEAH!
I’ve actually started another blog dedicated to this workshop: http://www.canvasdance.wordpress.com
I have several newspaper articles about CANVAS DANCE but only found this one so far:

Check it out…it is great fun & close to my heart as a way to peace on this planet.
So, I’m here…Northampton, MA.!
I’ll be leading a CANVAS DANCE ™ Friday November 14 at Hay Market Cafe…
www.commonwealthcenter.org for details…hope to see you!
Below is a 2 person Canvas Dance…
I LOVE this town!
I’m still in boxes, so, I can’t share any photos from my adventures in the last 4 months…but soon!
I just wanted to say I’m back & hope to write regularly soon!
LOTS of LOVE people!
The bottom line is LOVE…
THE ART ANGEL~How to make GOD laugh…
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 ART ANGEL ~ You Are Buddha~Full
HELLO! I’m back from DC and will start posting pictures of my adventures with wings…
I’m also back to work on my on-line shops and I’ve posted some new products on:
Including a limited edition of my trade marked slogan: “YOU ARE BUDDHA~FULL” bumper-stickers.
ETSY is really a fabulous place to shop! Go there if you haven’t already!
Well, on a personal note, I hope to be more public with my wings this year and continue with my documentary.
It’s called “MESSAGE~ We’re All Writing This Story”. I will be running (& dancing!) across country wearing my angel wings as a symbol/ message of peace. Along the way I will be interviewing strangers and getting their take on the possibilities of peace on earth. I will also do collaborative art with strangers called “Canvas Dance”.
I will have several pairs of wings for people to sign & write their “message”. I will also be passing out hearts to all I meet… to remind them of the sweetness & power of love.
I am currently researching grants for women artist & film. If you have any resources you can share with me, I would be so grateful! I am also looking for sponsors.
Going to & shopping at my ART ANGEL shops is a way you can support my mission as well!
Thanks for visiting!
Sending LOVE!
THE ART ANGEL ~ EAT! PRAY! LOVE! Back In The Berkshires!

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!
