Angel Mother

 "All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother."
~ Abraham Lincoln

Below is the painting process and metamorphosis from start to finish. I truly didn't know where I was going with this piece but enjoyed building each collage layer with Japanese paper, paint pens, watercolor, oil pastels and acrylic. Then Chris Cozen suggested to me on facebook that I turn the painting upside down; she said she saw an angel. And then magically, I did as well!

As Michaelangelo would say, he saw the angel in the marble and carved until he could set it free.

Thank you for visiting.
