Bio:

Angela received a BFA from Clarion University of Pennsylvania. She is a Fellow of the National Sculpture Society, a Máster Signature member of American Women Artists, and an Art Renewal Center Living Master.

Artist's Statement:

Freedom of spirit is my work’s purpose; to uplift and inspire feelings of love and joy. 

I sculpt compositions that tell love stories, either those of others or my own. I like to imagine this as a bridge of humanity that connects my heart with that of another. Each sculpture begins as dramatic light and shadows over form. Unique details then deliver a responding body that listens as a live face does. Upon signing my works in clay, it is difficult to resist the thrill of creation. I have a sense that nothing is finalized; it continues to develop and grow, like ourselves.

Winning the Purchase Award has such enormous significance for me, it’s every artist’s dream to be in a museum and my work, Lee’s Ferry Landing, will be at the Tucson Desert Art Museum for as long as I live. I’m so thankful to the American Women Artists for that opportunity.”
