Larry D. Lean
Art is not the ability to render what one can see. It is the ability to communicate what one can imagine.
Larry D. Lean is a retired professor of art who dazzled college students with his zany humor for thirty-two years.
His second-grade friends considered him to be the best artist drawing skeletons and frogmen!

If they did know everything they would have noticed Newpa, a tiny, overlooked planet beyond Pluto, quietly slipping into darkness.
The people who lived on Newpa were trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. When the sun’s rays began to dim, Newpa began to lose its light! The Newpanions visited their neighbor, the Planet of the Asbestos Lighting Bugs! They were happy to lend Newpa twenty asbestos lightning bugs. The lightning bugs would fly to the sun, gather light, and fly back to Newpa. For a while everything went great! That was until the Asbestos Lighting flew to the sun and did not return! Where did they go? Newpa had no light!
