Description
Statues are a big part of the Acadiana landscape. This wide eyed angel has been passed down to several of my mother's friends and has now been in my garden for about a decade. I first saw it about 25 years ago. It was painted solid white. After the owner died it moved and received a new paint job by a distant cousin to my father. It had a blue robe and thick brown eye brows. When it moved to my home my grandchildren requested I paint it over. As it ages and paint flakes off it gains a different look. It is a custom in Louisiana not to strip the old layers of paint off but to simply add more layers on. When I first saw the statue it appeared to already have received several coats of paint.
