A great night at my art group

Earth Angel
Art group sketch
16 x 20 inches

Last night the model at our art group was amazing.  What I love about
making a quick painting is the vibe that the model gives off. In this case
perhaps because I realized my friend had just died, I picked up an angel 
vibration. Susan, my friend was an angel on earth, a kind person dedicated 
to caring for others.

I am not religious. But I do love some of the religious art I've seen
on my travels. I was happy with the abstract way the painting turned out.
Steven says that the angel looks angry or stern.  I said maybe she's upset
about what we're doing to the planet. 

Have a loving what you do day.

Yes she does seem a bit angry and bewildered perhaps? Wonderful sketch❣️❣️❣️

Thank you so much Evelyn,

I just thought she was staring hard. Maybe at what we humans need to change.
Or maybe she was just thinking.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO Barbara

i'm not religious either, but even I can see that some religious art does have a lot of power and energy to it

Hi Jennifer Rose,

Well it's hard not to feel moved seeing the Botticellis in the
Uffizi. Yes. They are amazing.

XOXOXOXOXOXO Barbara
