The Parking Sun in a Friend’s Art

Morning Page - Parking Sun

My friend, Lani Gerity Glanville, creates fantastic art via collage and photoshop.  This piece has a parking sun in it, but you can view Lani’s entire and ever-growing collection here.

Lani’s site is named 14 Secrets for a Happy Artist’s Life!

Shhhh!  Don’t tell anyone, but these are the fourteen secrets:

  1. Find 3 good things every day, whether they are experiences, or objects, or both. Find a way to use them in art.
  2. Make everything special.  Embellish your life.
  3. Look for Fairy God-mothers and Angels.  Be ready for experiences that will delight and surprise you.
  4. Play more often.
  5. Look for the smiling faces.
  6. Wish everyone a happy life.
  7. Find something to love about where you are everyday.
  8. Make art everyday.
  9. Create time for yourself.
  10. Honor thy grandmothers as much as possible.  (Of course grandfathers need honor too, but historically and culturally we are a little weaker in the honoring grandmother side of things.)
  11. Play with the grandchildren as much as possible.
  12. Create beauty with what you have on hand.
  13. Make art with friends. Make art as gifts.
  14. Create a list of secrets for a happy life and pass it on.

Shhhhh!

Frankly speaking, these are great guidelines to follow if you have Parkinson’s.  

But don’t tell anyone except your 500 closest friends!

Shhhhh!

  1. Hi Bruce
    Lani’s art is amazing, her out look on life magical.
    My husband has PD ( 12 years ) Has retired because of the PD , the plus is he now painting ! His art is great, he is looking for some local artist to work with in a group setting.
    Cheers Louise

  2. Very interesting. Everything seems frozen in place, stiff. But the sun and the wild colors all radiate heat and warmth and life.
