This special angel was made for a friend. He ordered it special for his wife's Christmas present. I normally do not do angels. I know i know....many can't see the difference between an angel from a fairy or sprite. Well let me say, it is a whole mind set when you are making it and yes it DOES make a big difference. I enjoyed making Glenda for her namesake, and very happy that Glenda is now in the home she was made for and very much loved.
 The following is the letter I wrote him to let him know she was done, and for him to view her. It will give you an idea of what goes into an order and trying to follow specifics, also it best decribes her.
 I had set up the webpage for him to view it instead of just sending it via email.

Hiya Karl,
 Well this is Glenda. I have provided pictures of all sides to her, just getting one straight on of the front many times doesn't show the detail.
 You said you wanted a blue dress, i wasn't sure what blue, but I thought a nice Pearl blue would look good, her cape is pearl white with gold designs. i found some neat wings for her, they are gold cloth....Her cape has a little "diamond" rhinestone to look like it keeps it close. ...I did decide to give her a halo, I thought it would look good against the dark hair. The hair is of clay as you asked....which makes the halo stand out better than if it had been fake hair.  I have her kneeling on a "cloud" , she is attached to the cloud, so when picking her up, use the base...though the glue I use is a jeweler's glue and very strong, I would hate to take chance of her breaking from a drop.  She has a white dove perched on her hands....ok, I TRIED and TRIED to sculpt one that small...*LOL* .....but none to my satisfaction...so I did find the perfect sized dove to fit on her hands. Her eyes are dark blue glass beads. And as you can see she has painted details on her face. She is about 4 1/2" tall..including the halo and cloud....by....3 3/4"x 3 3/4" (base)
Well, here are her piccys *:O)
Please note-- The light played havoc on her pearlized 'clothes" so some of the picture might look washed out or distorted, the light reflected a lot no matter what i did *L*
 Well, hope ya like her..she was fun to make. Just email me whenever ya can to let me know if she is a keeper or not *L*
 Sincerely, Bonnie *:O)

Well she was a 'keeper" and happily adopted in time for her to be unwrapped on Christmas by her namesake. *:O)

Glenda was the last of my Wee BonnieLees to be photographed before the camera died.
