Thanks, everyone! I'll accept cherub or angel -- your choice.

Yeah, Yeah, this is all excellent, especially the framing and use of negative space....but, but!

Is this not really a Cherub, and not an Angel?

Not to be pedantic...but...I can be...lol

Lovely work, though.

PS Well poo-poo...I am glad I looked it up...a Cherub is a form of angel.

A cherub (/ˈtʃɛrəb/;[1] also pl. cherubim; Hebrew כְּרוּב, pl. כְּרוּבִים, English trans kərūv, pl. kərūvîm, dual kərūvāyim; Latin cherub, pl. cherubin, cherubim; Syriac ܟܪܘܒܐ), is a winged angelic being who is considered to attend on the Abrahamic God in biblical tradition.
