"Ms. Paisley was started with some gourds that I have hoarded for 20 years! Her shape is what brought her to life. She may not have the body of a 20-year-old, but she is comfortable in her body and with her age, and still enjoys life at the beach."Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after November 1, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).

"A Band of Angels Comin After Me When walking the beach and looking for shells, I come across oyster shells, with their different shapes and sizes. For some reason, I see heads (often with open mouths), wings, bodies, and yes even halos, maybe because when we first moved here it was around Christmas time, my first Christmas in Florida. I created my first angels as tree ornaments that year, but I could not stop seeing or making angels. I haven’t really been a strong believer in angels in the past. But we’ve lost three close family members in the past two years, they died way too soon. Our 24-year-old grandson, our 52-year-old nephew, and a 69-year-old husband and brother-in-law. Our grandson died 2 years ago which still grieves me, and my sisters only child and husband died in the past 6 months. I never experienced this kind of loss and grief growing up. I want to believe that these dear ones are angels, looking out for us. I also feel my own mortality more closely. The title of this piece comes from an old spiritual, “Swing Low Sweet Chariot”: Swing low, sweet chariot, Coming for to carry me home. Swing low, sweet chariot, Coming for to carry me home.- I looked over Jordan, and what did I see? Coming for to carry me home? A band of angels, coming after me, Coming for to carry me home.
- If you get there before I do, Coming for to carry me home, Tell all my friends I’m coming too, Coming for to carry me home.
- I’m sometimes up and sometimes down, Coming for to carry me home, But still my soul feels heavenly bound, Coming for to carry me home.
