For those of us who create art work, we do it for our own pleasure, for money, to please other people and to satisfy our muse. Once in a while someone comes along who is very special and makes what we do special...at least I hope so. I have a collector who has a daughter named Rachel with hazel eyes and blonde hair and who was born with a rare genetic disease...so far there is no cure..Rachel has to go to a Mayo Clinic for care and her mother asked me to do a Mother Angel to give to Rachel's doctor. The report from my collector states, "the Doctor loves the Angel and put it where all could see her... she is now welcoming many children and adults at the Mayo Clinic with her kind face and raised hand". That touches my heart.
I hope that a cure will eventually be found for Rachel and all of those who suffer from this particular disease.
What a special angel from a very special artist! She is just beautiful, Bonnie, and sure to bring joy to all who see her!!!

I always knew you were an angel! Your work is just an extension of the love that you exude to everyone. This beautiful piece will touch the hearts of children for many years to come. What a wonderful way to heal. Much love to you my dear friend Bonnie.
