These paintings were inspired by a move to a 1000 sf warehouse in the industrial area of east Sarasota. I was the only one who slept in that area at night, so I felt vulnerable. I got a Doberman and named her Angel. I end cted safe keeping by making a series of paintings of angels that were lacking corporeality and placed them in different architectural settings to mimic the warehouse. Some of the works took on religious iconography and so they were titled after saints. I was using paint sticks and iridescent pigments and oil pastels on paper. One was selected for the cover of Sarasota Magazine.
