I have met many angels in the time I have spent in Los Angeles. This painting contains
two of them. I met Kevin Lynn of KLL Video Productions one day while sketching. He shows
up in this painting as the man on the left with the video camera. The man on the right
with the bike helmet is Patrick, a kind citizen who spends his retirement riding around
downtown LA looking for people to help, he guarded me the day I met him for hours
as I sketched. The frame of this painting is from my perspective on a day when I met
up with both of them while working on a video project about my paintings with Kevin.
When you see me snap photos in a blue and white shirt in the film, this painting came
from one of photos taken in those moments.
