Angel Love

So happy to love and be loved

This piece was directly inspired by the model. A young girl who struck this pose that just captivated me. It was a gesture where her whole body communicated – not just her arms and her head, but her shoulders, back, and the way she shifted her weight – her whole being emanated happiness from within. So I tried to capture some of that – the happiness or inner contentment that comes from knowing you are truly loved. I wanted to give her an aura, so I made a lacy pierced metal crown, tiara, halo – whatever you want to call it – I think it makes her uniquely angelic.

Your Stories Tell Us Your Story

In 2003 my beatiful son was born. We found out at nine months old that he had a very rare chromosome abnormality, that he would have extreme difficulty with his "trunk strength." Walking for him was extremely hard to learn. When he started taking his 1st steps unaided except for his walker, my mother-in-law sent this to me. He literally walked away from his walker at 32 months old. It is a reminder to me that there is always someone there to help you when you need it, even if you can't see them.

This Angel reminds me of my loving husband, who has Alzheimer's! Even though he does not know who I am, not a day goes by that he does not tell me "I Love You!" I have often told my friends that everyone one should be loved as I am and I do love him! He is so precious!
