Lucky to be an Artist

LWN - LuckyThis autobiography by British artist Unity Spencer—a beautifully produced book published by Unicorn Press—mentions her experience of The Landmark Forum.  Unity Spencer is a well-known artist and the daughter of the famous painter Stanley Spencer and artist Hilda Carline.

In this book, Unity reflects at age 84 on her many years of unhappiness and her struggle to enjoy painting. She credits The Landmark Forum with ending the depression that had been present through most of her adulthood. The book’s chapters are organized according to decade, and the one on the 2000s begins with her account of her breakthrough via Landmark:

“In 2001 I joined a Landmark Forum weekend. We all had to get up on the platform and say who we were and what we were giving up. I introduced myself as the possibility of daring, joy and love and that I was giving up being the victim. As I said those words, the depression that had dogged me most of my adult life left me in a flash and I never suffered it again.”

I'm assuming that was the Landmark Advanced Course, as no one is required to get up and speak at the Landmark Forum. Congratulations on losing all that baggage!

The landmark forum is an amazing course that changes lives! I was a failure in my life and did not have a good direction in my life. After the landmark forum, I ended up chasing my dreams and I have a few aims in my life. I think the forum can give a meaning to life! The course taught me many things which I wound have known and it helped me in taking multiple decisions for my life and career. It’s a course we all should participate in this extremely informative course.

Being happy and satisfied is all that we look for in our lives but there’s always something holding us back. Landmark forum helps figure it all out within a weekend. I did my forum when I was in college and am a lawyer now. It’s amazing how everything worked out well after this incredible program.
