I have had so much fun making these small encaustic
paintings of birds. Everyone loves birds,
and many have flown off to collectors all over the
world. Two recently went to Australia for gifts.
Birds are so symbolic, and folks make a connection
with the different types. Seeing two crows
brings good luck.
Philip DeAngelo Studio features the work of
several local artists, all of which have wonderful
gift items for the upcoming holidays.
