This picture reminds me of a painting that is hanging in my living room. I look at this picture all the time, every time I sit on my day bed i look forward and see a picture resembling theses angels. I don't know why but i really seem to like this photo. It's very different than anything you would see in a modern house today or even anything you would see an artist now a days create. The angels remind me of all different people portraying different personalities. The angels all seem to be moving and doing their own thing, the artist makes the angels all work together when there far apart. I love art and have always wished I could be good at painting and drawing. One of my greatest frustrations is being able to picture it in my head, but no be able to put it on paper. This artist seemed able to do that with ease. Although I do wonder if this was easy for Apollo or if it took him years. I wonder if this is what he wanted it to look like or if it turned our completely different than he had planed. Just like many other things in life.
