Winged creatures and coloured threads played their part in Angels Turn Their Backs



Two winged creatures can be found in Addy's world - one is a tapestry angel,
the other, a battered old parrot. One is silent, the other never stops talking.

Weeping angel




One of my favorite characters in this story is Victor: an African Gray Parrot. Touchy, loud, secretive, funny, smart, magical, annoying and lovable. But can he keep a secret?


Art through needlepoint tapestry is also an important part of my character Addy's healing.
The work below was done by an older teen close to me, when she suffered from a lengthy battle with agoraphobia and panic anxiety disorder. The work kept her focused and grounded - and played a huge part in her own healing.

I love seeing images from books I've enjoyed! That's a gorgeous tapestry.

She did many more and I have three on my walls. Her work IS just beautiful.
Like you, I love to see images from books. I always "see" my characters as I create them - and I am presently working on small drawings of some of my favourite characters from "The Watcher's Quest Trilogy" fantasies - which I hope to post eventually.
