    I fell in love with painting angels after the tragic death of my sister. Painting them was such a peaceful process and it helped me through the grief. I started creating them for others that had also lost loved ones or were going through hard times. I believe angels are a reminder that not only are our loved ones being held close until we see them again, but also that we are guarded by them here on earth! Each angel has a story! www.joyfulwhimsyart.com

    Hello; I’m Steve Allison and I live in Matthews, NC; retired after a commercial architecture career in the Midwest. Besides “grandparenting”, I spend much of my time indulging my creative urge by painting. I find myself drawn mostly to landscape work, but also dabble in still life and portrait; in both acrylic and watercolor. Thanks for taking a look at my “work.” www.sallisonart.com
