This week, I'm sharing the inspiration behind my sculpture, "Angel de la Vida" (Angel of Life). Throughout art history, angels are frequently depicted in heaven above the clouds. I brought the clouds into her drapery and filled her robes with the colors and passions of life. Patinaed with fire and chemicals, I then create subtle nuances with hand rubbed metallic powders and waxes. She is attached to a steel circle frame, giving the illusion that she is floating above the material universe.
