The angel, Bisbee, Arizona, 2009

A bronze angel, its wings and arms spread wide, rises out of the trees on one of the many hills that shore up the old mining town of Bisbee. The sculptor has the angel looking down, possibly to locate its potential customers. I was drawn to the colors and textures of both the bronze and the trees – they seem to feed on each other here. The trees provide energy for the angel, and the angel enjoys the protection they afford her.

Thanks so much, Daniel, for your kind words on this picture. I wish I could be of help, but I do not have the name of the sculptor. The trees and the metal work so well together.
