About the work
I think Morris Hirshfield is a great painter when I look at how he does his girls… I like them more than his very popular paintings of animals. The girls, that is, the paintings, have a very specific personality. And, as I like things that fly… ‘Angels’ in the title seemed to fit. I didn’t colour them in yellow, as that would have spoilt the isolation of the stage-girls.
