Sketched from Zoom. By Angela Lansbury.
Angella is my signature for artwork. It condenses my first name and the first two letters of my surname.
Years ago I saw the name Angella on a dress shop. I was outraged at the mis-spelling of a common name.
However, years later I adopted this spelling for my artwork. Why?
1 To condense my name into one memorable word, like Picasso or Michaelangelo.
2 Because it is quicker to write and often on A6 size paper under a sketch I don't have room for a long name.
3 The two words of a name are too distracting from the visual.
4 I wanted to use just my first name but Angela is such a common name that I needed something to identify myself.
5 I wanted to create a different name for Angela the painter from Angela the writer.
