TITLE: Archangel Gerald
DESCRIPTION: Not a cherub or female in gossamer, the angel Gerald, a name meaning "Spear Thrower" or "Rules with a Spear" is a warrior. The artist put all his talent into constructing this triumphant Christian sculpture.
His right foot is on the cornerstone and his right hand is upraised like a satellite dish receiving instructions: watchful, kind, and indomitable, he has a Michelangelo trumpet in a holster at his side, and a heart-tipped spear bearing three crosses as a weapon: A three-branched grapevine covers the cornerstone, each branch bearing fruit, and forty individual grape leaves: The letters Alpha and Omega adorn the belt: He has a serous tail because he certainly needs to be able to steer and stop if he's going to fly about on these wings. Twenty-six months in construction, "Gerald" stands on his own stainless steel base and has a structure for transport.
