My 1st Angel

I've never painted an angel before and after taking Suzi's class, decided to try one.

A friend from work lost her baby boy last month and I had been wanting to do a journal page in memory of him.
I want to do a version of this on a larger scale and I've started the sketch. If it turns out I'll see if my friend wants it.
Goodbye for now sweet Carter! I'll see you and Renee again some day.

I love Angels too - what a lovely painting and sentiment. I too followed Renee's blog and feel sad for her family, but she was blessed with a wonderful life, albeith too short.

There must be nothing more devestating than losing a child, especially a little baby. How does one cope? I'm glad God has spared me thus far.

Blessings and have a wonderful day,
Doris

Beautiful angel Debbie, I'm sure Carter's mother would love to have your gift!!!
How does a mother survive the death of a child?

Cheers
