REVIEWS
Enjoyed class. Angeles was a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher. Beautiful setting by Quail Lake, but tables for instruction were spread far apart and there was no shade on this very hot day.

Her work has been exhibited internationally, featured in a national art publication, and shown throughout the St. Louis art community.

Title or Location:
When I was growing up, we always traveled to Nebraska to spend time with family. I always loved the dirt roads and expansive fields. Invariably it would be storming at some point, and very often I would go to sleep by the sound of the raindrops on the roof. This painting is a nod to those memories.

Title or Location: My home in Colorado Springs.
This painting called ?Poppy? was created from an online painting class that teaches loose acrylics. As a member, we are permitted to use the lessons for practice adding to our technique development. I added my own style using acrylics to bring the image more color, gradient and vibrancy. The painting is displayed in my home for personal enjoyment. The original reference photo used was taken by the teacher for lesson use.

Title or Location: ?Still Waters Beneath Mt Princeton?
This is a 16x20, oil painting, on linen.I was going through my files of reference photos and found this very old postcard. I remember buying it in an antique store in Florence, CO. I pulled it out, faded and worn and loved the composition! So I painted it! This painting will appear in Plein Air Magazine in June, with PikesPeak Plein Air Painters!

Title or Location: Cloud Dancer
?Cloud Dancer? is a 36 x 48 inch acrylic on canvas. The inspiration came from decades ago when my daughter took ballet lessons. She told me after one of her performances that a feeling of elation came over her during part of the dance, and that she felt like she was dancing in the clouds. The painting depicts an adult rather than my young daughter, but the hair color in the painting matches that of my daughter which beautifully compliments the purple clouds.

Title or Location: Gromit in heaven
Gromit was a ?foster fail? who helped many other foster dogs on their way to a new life. He demonstrated life could be kind and to try and trust again. His favorite play dates were at Union Reservoir, retrieving tennis balls in the water. The day before Memorial Day in 2018, he started fading fast, a rush to the emergency vet showed the cause, cancer on his heart. He died just after midnight, so it would be impossible for me to forget him. He was 4years old.
