Angels Art (II)

Sorry it took me a super long time to do this post. To refresh your memory, here's the link to Part (I) - Angels in digital art. In Part (II), I'm going to share with you some breathtaking Angels in fine art. Unfortunately, some of the images appear blurry after I blew them up.

Now when your babies sleep peacefully through the night, you know why. I'm going to pray for Angels to sing me to sleep tonight!
'Song of the Angels' by William-Adolphe Bouguereau




























This is sweet........... an Angel delivering a message! Have you been listening?
'The Angel's Message' by George Hillyard Swinstead




























'St. Cecilia' by John William Waterhouse
I'm beginning to wonder... are these painted by the Angels themselves?

















Plenty of paintings like this to remind us that our guardian Angel is always with us! Keep that faith :)
 
Can anyone tell me where I can meet this Angel? I think I'll just die in his arms. :p























































'Joseph and Mary Admiring Their Son are Joined by a Trio of Angels Who are No Less Impressed'  Such a long title -___-'
Love the message of this piece. 'Not Alone' by Danny Hahlbohm
 
































All the baby Angels look so cute!! Haha. I'm going to do baby Angels art in my next Angels Art post. I promise, they're going to be the most adorable babies you've ever seen. You wouldn't want to miss that. ;)

'The Annunciation' by Bartolome Esteban Murillo I love (x10) this Artist's works! I have no idea how he did it but they are ALL impressive. Don't take my word for it, visit HERE and see for yourself.

Finally, my latest wallpaper! So nice right! :D Sorry, I forgot to bookmark the link and I can't find that website anymore. :(
If you like what I've shared, do visit my Angels Art (I) and return for (III). Have an Angelic day~ :)

My Inspiration - Ray Caesar

Two years ago I stumbled upon Ray Caesar's art. He has been one of my BIGGEST favorite artists ever since. I couldn't recall how many hundred times I've re-visited his site but one thing I do know for sure; each time I see his works, I fell in love with them all over again. Words alone could not express my admiration for this artist so today I am going to show you what I mean by 'gifted'.

About the Artist:
''I was born in London England in 1958 and the youngest of a very strange and sometimes frightening family. When I was fifteen I met a girl called Michiko and I have been in love with her ever since. Due to a twist of fate I ended up working in a Children's Hospital for 17 years and although I didn't like the job very much it changed my life and led me down a path to where I am now. Those years taught me about the cruelties of Man and Nature but also that Miracles do exist and are often the product of our own actions. I make pictures all day because I really don't have a choice in the matter and I am lucky that I love doing it ...there was a time I hated doing it but that is nicely packaged in pretty paper and put away in the past. I beleive that you must have both sunlight and moonlight to see the truth. I am a bit of a hermit and usually have to have an internal argument to open the front door and step outside my house. I never learned to drive a car because I believe that red is the color of action and green is a calming color ... so I walk through life slowly and that has been a blessing............well enough about me! .....did I mention I love dogs ?''





































How can one's art seems so creepy yet so beautiful...? I hope one day my art will have the same influence on someone, just like how Ray Caesar had on me. A compliment from one client I would never forget goes something like this, ''I remember hearing that the best art is one that makes people feel like they are a part of it. It makes them feel good inside or added something to their hearts. A great artist achieves that, sometimes without even realizing it. Your art is like that.'' Words like this remind me of why I want to be an artist. What was the most beautiful thing someone had ever said to you? :)

Tears of JOY

Two pieces of great news to share with you today. First of all, my works are being featured again! I am so honored to have two of my works featured along side other beautiful works on Indie.Tea's pretty blog. Thank you, Joyti! :)

Second piece of good news; Dollgift and Byrheea merchandise is now available in another retail outlet, Forest N Trees. This is no ordinary stop.. it is an exclusive store in Singapore that carry a full range of Carrie Chau, my idol's merchandise! Yes, I will be selling my works side by side with Carrie Chau's! I can't contain my excitement, I want to laugh and cry at the same time! lol (sob sob)..

Now I'm going to show you why I love this Artist so much.

About The Artist:
Hong Kong artist Carrie Chau claims that she can draw with both hands at the same time so that she earns a living at double speed and has more time for sleeping! Carrie believes that she has a past life as an alien on another planet, which is why she has difficulty communicating with human beings in this life. Her works depict the daily life as funny, positive, with an eerie touch of delicacy. Through her drawings and 3D sculptures, she represents swollen and joyful characters, and seems to be inspired of jumping jack, fairy tale where angels, imps, and all the animals from Noah’s Ark. “Sometimes I’m inspired by fairy tales; I like fairy tales such as Blue Beard, The Emperor’s new clothes. But not the Cinderella, snow white or such kind of story, too “sweet” for me.”
