My God's Wings Series is a collection of collages which are made from many layers of torn magazine papers. They embrace the beauty and grace of God's winged creatures. I hope you get a chance to see the exhibition, and I hope you enjoy looking at God's winged creations as much as I enjoyed trying to capture their loveliness in my collage paintings.

The California Cooperative Art Project
I hope you all get a chance to see the California Cooperative Art Project that will be on display at the California State Capitol Basement Gallery at 10th and L Street in Sacramento; April 2 - April 13, 2007. For the last two years, I have been very involved in the production of this large scale art piece and securing this display venue. This 36" x 240" canvas painting traveled all over California to 29 participating artists who contributed painted, collaged, or drawn imagery to the piece. The piece is a statement about unity, cooperation, and the connecting of the "artistic spirit". For more information on the project see my web site www.eileendownes.com
