My grandparents are buried in a very old cemetery in Dallas, and every time I visit I think of it as "visiting the angels" because there are so many beautiful 1920-30's angels there, including the special one that is the family area directly in front on my grandparents graves. As a young art student I would sketch these for hours, I am sure it is one of the reasons I have such appreciation for Art Nouveau and Art Deco design elements now. So today while my thoughts are with those that lost family and friends in 9-11, I am posting some of the angels that have comforted me in my life, to bring comfort to you in yours.
Curious are we? I guess you are if you are looking at this. Or perhaps you saw me giggling in some dark corner. Yes, I really laugh a lot. Wish I had a nickel for every time I've been asked that online. Irony is everywhere and most things considered serious are the things I laugh at the most. I believe in life the only truth is unconditional love, all else is vanity. Search and you will find me. In the National Archive of Newspapers. Looking over the produce at Piggly Wiggly. In a gallery or gift store near you. Standing behind you in line at the post office. You never know when I'll ask you "Can you help me start my car ?...I have jumper cables." You probably know me already, you just haven't MET me yet.
