I am so excited because this wonderful piece has gotten so much attention and I've received several inquiries on this one. It is quite beautiful and highly textured and the angel's gaze evokes many emotions...

- I am creative geek with a life: I am an artist, collaborator, a PTA & soccer mom, a queen bee & a domestic goddess blissfully married to my best friend & blessed with two magnificent girls who are a lot of fun & a load of hard work. Not a day goes by when I don't rejoice having my children & meeting my husband ~ my husband & my children define me, but my art is an extension of myself. I did not receive any formal training in painting & drawing. I am self taught & self representing. My creative soul is always on a perpetual journey & I am still learning with each piece that I create ~ often stretching myself just a little bit more past my comfort zone, hoping to bring new confidences that I didn't know existed. My approach is to bring something whimsical & ethereal into the mundane, creating characters that exist within their own realms. I love that I am able to help support my family by doing something that I am thrilled to do & I share this with you with the hope that you will find your niche & voice & to empower you to discover the unique gifts within yourself.....From a woman's soul♥ Joann

What soulful eyes! You really capture such profound emotion in the eyes alone. Truly magnificent!
Words can't describe how beautiful this angel is. Her eyes are so expressive!
Thanks, Sue and Darlene for your kind words. They say that the eyes are the window to your soul so when I paint, I do my very best to convey a lot expression in the eyes and I am very happy that you see the passion and the time (my heart and my soul) that I've put into this piece. Thanks again!
