One month in the life of Parker People 365: January.As a psychologist, Dr. Ronald Parker is a keen observer of people."Parker People 365: January," Parker’s new monograph, showcases a series of mixed-media works on diary pages which has joined the text-based art movement exploring people’s private thoughts, dreams, fantasies and fears, with each double page being a work of art in its own right.These PARKER PEOPLE were created over a period of 30+ years, with each provocative work of art telling important stories about life and its meaning. From over 4,000 PARKER PEOPLE drawings Dr. Parker created, 365 were artfully curated by his wife, Yvonne, to represent each day of the year (no astrological implications) to form a book of daily inspiring, contemplative and witty observations. The first of twelve monographs, "January," is presented here. The complete "Parker People 365: A Year in the Life of Parker People" book is also available on Amazon.PARKER PEOPLE have been expressed by critics to be "ribald, risqué, politically incorrect, iconoclastic and irreverent."Others have stated that “One is immediately mesmerized by PARKER PEOPLE, their expressive features, quirky personalities and unusual forms.”The addition of text to this raw, visionary art makes each piece more meaningful and provokes the viewer to self-reflection or to having a good laugh. Many of these paintings laced with text are auto-biographical reflections of Parker’s life that has been off-center, but on target as an academician, psychologist, international entrepreneur and artist.If, after reading and reflecting on the PARKER PEOPLE 365 book or monographs, you like these sardonic, satirical, humorous, mordantly funny, literate and inspiring text-based, mixed-media works, please become a PARKER PEOPLE to help change the world into a safer and happier place for all.
