This week I wanted to share a bit about my piece, "Angel de la Vida" (Angel of Life). Her robes are filled with the colors and passions of life. First cast in bronze and patinaed with fire and chemicals, I then create subtle nuances with metallic powders and waxes. Throughout art history, angels are frequently depicted in heaven above the clouds. I brought the clouds into her drapery and attached her to a steel circle, giving the illusion that she is floating above the material universe.
