With the angels, Cayucos, California, 2012

I abstract the huge marble angel that dominates this tomb by cutting it off at the knees, thereby calling more attention to a small circular photograph of the person buried here. He is, as some might say, “with the angels,” and his steadfast pose (as well as the size and cost of the monument) suggests a man of substance for his time. Set into a slab of decorative granite embellishments, the picture has weathered well, and still keeps the appearance and character of this man alive in the minds of surviving generations.
