Praying Angel - when there are so many steps in the creation process, there is a relationship with the piece and you begin to have favorites, maybe not even the whole piece but how and where colors and elements come together. It was this angel’s finishing touches… her garment of antique velvet damask, the halo of antique gold brocade with slivers of velvet damask and antique French metal sequins, embellished with antique red glass jewelry fragments. Caught in candle light, she came alive… her beauty, message and serenity. Not just for the holidays, she is for every day.

Praying Angel, touched with gild, the dangle of antique filigreed rosary bead, faceted mirrored purple - wine bead, hand finished ornate cross with antique red glass jewelry fragment, hand painted purple - wine taffeta tie, gold washed reverse.
