The Art of Angels

Celebrating The Art of Angels - It's heavenly art! There are angels on earth, heavenly angels and formerly some squid angels. There are angels in art and that is why we celebrate the art of angels. Art can be found all around us.

As beauty is in the eye of the beholder, there is beauty in the art of angels. I have personally had a high regard for angels dating back to my grade school days when I attended Our Lady of Angels Catholic school in Cleveland, Ohio. My schooling instilled a deep spiritual belief in angels and in heaven. And, my schooling instilled in me a deep sense of humility.

So glad you stopped by my artsy page where you can find some beautiful angel posters and items! A couple of favorite angel artists are William Adolphe Bouguereau and Elvira Amrhein.

You know I was a Squidoo Squid Angel once upon a time or two and it meant the world to me! So, you already know that I do believe in angels. Blessings to YOU my dear! Thanks for dropping by today. I hope you enjoy this artful page.

So, do you sincerely believe in angels? Which?
  • Heavenly angels.
  • Guardian angels.
  • Squid angels.
  • Earthly angels.
  • More than one of the above.
  • Alas, I do not believe in angels. 
Why I created this page.
All those years ago when I attended Catholic School on the Westside of Cleveland, Ohio, I literally had no idea that I would be writing about art topics and about heavenly beings.

It's important to know that I was an impressionable child. Having nuns as teachers can be quite something to a child's fresh mind.

You know, in second grade I remember that nun, Sister Mary Francis. Gosh, we had a failure to communicate I think. Looking back at her notes on the backside of my report card, I was concerned. Here it is all these years in the future and I am thinking about that nun! Can you believe? I was misunderstood in second grade.

I remember that nun hitting my knuckles with a ruler in front of the class. And, those times she made me wipe the chalk board. I wonder if she has found my artsy page on angels?

THE ART OF ANGELS:

I hope you have enjoyed your visit and perhaps found inspiration in the art of angels. Have you been touched by an angel? Do you believe in angels? Thank you to my special London guardian angel who watches over me daily!
