Abstract:
Angels EverywhereAlthough I don't recall ever seeing an angel, I have always felt their presence. Sometimes when I close my eyes, I feel one standing next to me.Now, the artist within me sees angels and paints them. In this book, I have included a few of those angels and the words received intuitively about each one. You will notice that I use many different materials to create my angel paintings. Some are watercolors; others are acrylic. Part of the collection is painted with artist pastels or with mixed media. I even have one that evolved using oils and encaustics. My angels come in many sizes, from very small, 4" x 6", to rather large, 54" x 42". Most are on watercolor paper or Yupo. Four are painted on stretched canvas.Sometimes, it is helpful to open this book to a painting and simply meditate about it. Silence is a friend. Perhaps an angel will appear in the quiet of your day. Take a deep breath and discover the majesty of angels all around.
