3 of my best friends & angels - Dacia, Elli & Megan!
The Global Angel Wings Project, led by artist Colette Miller, was created in 2002 to remind humanity that there is enough anger and bitterness on this planet and that we can be the “Angels of the Earth.” How beautiful and inspiring is that? She's painted wings in locations all over the world since the projects inception, and the wings represent love, peace, kindness, hope, and compassion. 

I am so excited that I got to meet and have a lovely conversation with the ever-inspiring Colette Miller at the Street Art House opening event on August 26, 2015 – the artist behind this inspiring project! I’m all about the good vibes in life and think we need to spread them in any way we can…Colette just decided to get a bit more creative than some of us!

So, my friend, what uplifts you in life? Embrace the goddess within you and get your picture taken at one of these locations in LA:
  • Location pictured above: 8401 W 3rd St. (near the Beverly Grove)
  • Main street downtown - 446 Main street (between 5th and Winston) 
  • Front of the House of Blues in West Hollywood off of Sunset Blvd.
  • West Hollywood: Santa Monica Blvd.  & Palm Ave. 
  • Location pictured below: Korea Town, near Oympic and Irolo (near Normandie- Orange wall)
  • Location pictured below: Arts District at Angel City Brewery (Traction and 2nd) 
  • Location pictured below: Art Share - near 4th Place and Hewitt (and Traction) on a silver gate.
  • Santa Monica - 8801 Santa Monica Blvd. and Palm Ave.

    L.A. IS NO STRANGER TO STREET & PUBLIC ART

    When I first moved to L.A, I had never before seen so much beautiful, colorful street art in my entire life! I admire and appreciate all of the beautiful, artistic souls we have in this city who paint incredible murals for others to enjoy & be inspired by. 

    I'm also a fan of public art because 1) it give individuals a platform to express themselves, 2) promotes the importance of art, creativity, and imagination in a society that thrives on structure, and 3) challenges us to stop and ask ourselves "Wait... What is that? How does that make me feel? What does this represent to me or my community?"
