Anne Neilson

Entertaining Angels: True Stories and Art Inspired by Divine Encounters by Anne Neilson is a beautiful, hardcover (with dust jacket), gift book. Prior to ordering this book, I had never heard of Anne Neilson, but her angel art is beautiful. I loved how the angels were drawn. Some of the poses repeated throughout the book, but the vibrant colors differentiated the paintings. The art photos capture the paintings’ textures and essences as well as possible, but I would love to view these in person.

The stories of divine encounters in Entertaining Angels were less angelic than I expected. Though some entries contain miraculous elements, many of the stories are people (aka everyday angels) that help others, sometimes based on divine instruction, but often just to show kindness. I enjoyed reading the uplifting stories even though the book wasn’t quite what I had anticipated.
