Like A Raven ~ Painting, Angels and Emotions



This painting came to me in a flash, his presence was here beside me as I created this. I have felt him in my times of needing a warrior; when I was scared and unable to defend against life's seemingly insurmountable challenges. I created this image using various types of paints and mediums, layer upon layer, upon layer, as complex as our emotions, and as alive as our own spirits. An angel can be many different things, depending on our perspectives and beliefs, they come in all colors and shapes. For me, this is how I experience the angels in my life, and this is how I show the world that they exist. 






Like A Raven 

Like a raven in the night, he is unseen by a simple glance. Cloaked in a robe made of sparkly feathers, he is concealed among the stars. With a twinkling flash of lightning, he appears. An electric surge illuminates his face, from under the feathered hood. He is an angel, among the many, who guard the skies for our protection. His entrancing eyes convey powerful whispers of love and grace. He is with us, he has arrived. Like A Raven.
