These photos are of a sculpture that I finished a few days ago.

When I started this one, I definitely didn’t have an angel figure in mind, however, she showed up when I was having difficulty deciding how to design the back of her.  I felt a mysterious urge to add wings and as soon as I did that, the rest of her effortlessly came together.

I named this piece, “Calling All Angels”, because that song by Jane Siberry, kept swirling through my head after I had added the wings.  I especially love the part that goes:

“Calling all angels,

Calling all angels,

Walk me through this one

Don’t leave me alone.

Calling all angels,

calling all angels,

We’re tryin

we’re hopin

we’re hurtin

we’re lovin

we’re cryin

we’re callin,

’cause we’re not sure how this goes.”

No, we sure don’t know how it goes, do we?

I think the words in this song are even more profound, given what is happening right now to so many people on the planet and to our beautiful earth mother.  We definitely could use a little help, don’t you think?
