About VERA ON THE VERGE ~ ARTIST BETHANN SHANNON

\

VERA, ON THE VERGE, (Rated R), is artist Bethann Shannon’s newest character…she evolved out of a series of unfortunate circumstances and just plain CRAPPY stuff life sometimes dishes out!

Vera is on the verge!

She is sick & tired of bull s–t from life and people! She is at a place in her life where she is questioning everything…even GOD, is he real? Or just a figment of many peoples imagination!? She really, really wants to believe in him…but has many doubts coming up for her.

 Vera is also losing faith in the human race….often you’ll hear her saying ”I HATE EVERYBODY!”.

She asks “What happened to the “human” and “kind” in “HUMANKIND”?

Vulnerable and tough at the same time…Vera will no doubt speak her mind.

Vera will express a lot of the anger, frustration, doubt & despair many of us feel at times!

She can be bitter, impatient, furious, irate, sarcastic, depressed, intolerant, despaired, worried, lonely, sassy  and just downright bitchy!

Yet, on the other hand, she tries to be compassionate & understand life & people.

Vera, at her worst,  has entertained thoughts of suicide & murder (in very comical ways!)…but VERA, would NEVER really do either! At her best Vera has renounced all worldly possessions and joined Bono, Madonna, Brad, Angelina and Bill Gates on a mission to save the world!

 Vera is morbidly humorous! STAY TUNED!

PLEASE NOTE: ”VERA ON THE VERGE” IS  CLEARLY A CARTOON FOR

ADULTS/ MATURE AUDIENCES

I personally would rate her “R” but in this world she may be PG!!!

NOT FOR CHILDREN!

PLEASE NOTE: Many of Bethann’s characters are clearly for children….Maneki Neko Blue, Manny the Manic Monkey, Dat the Cat, Om Boy, Yin Yang Man & his gang ”OMI OMY”, are all for kids!

 All adorable, cute and into healthy & just plain good stuff!

(All characters are available for LICENSING!)

However, some of her characters are for mature audiences ONLY!

( example, some of Bethann’s sperm characters, Vera & some of her

Frida In Heaven are definitely for mature audiences).

Also available for Licensing!

I’d say …Bethann has a wide range from “G” rated to “X” rated!

FYI: BETHANN also likes to write her blog in 3rd person most of the time…WHY?  She just needs a little distance from herself ever so often!

A friendly infringement warning:All of Bethann Shannon’s work is protected under copyright law. Many names, images, slogans and characters are also protected under US Trade Mark Laws. Bethann is very serious about protecting her intellectual property and will take action if copied without written permission or Licensing Agreement…however…

    Hi Bethann, I’m putting together a post about the bundle of nerves I am pre-jetting to China for a charity trek to go on my site http://www.trekforhannah.co.uk

    Would it be ok if I used Vera to illustrate it? Got “the secret” from May 2008 in mind!

    Gracias, merci & thanks Bethann! Vera perfectly summed up how I feel right now: http://www.trekforhannah.co.uk/2011/04/sorting-my-kit-out/

Please get back to me asap via email so I know whether to use it, or take it down immediately.
