Photos: Artist's Wings Take Flight Via Echo Park's Gary Leonard

Downtown artist Collette Miller creates the random floating wings that provide the backdrop for these photos.

 

Downtown artist Collette Miller has been creating angels' wings at eye-level in Downtown L.A. for a while.

You could see some for a time outside the Artshare space on E. 4th Street.

They tempt passersby to insert themselves in the image.

This weekend, Echo Park photographer Gary Leonard is doing more than tempt.

He's inviting folks to put themselves in the middle of several pairs of wings painted on the building at 446 N. Main.

Then, as he does so well, he will take their pictures.

A good number of people showed up Saturday morning to create the above images.

Leonard will be back on Sunday taking more photos from 9-11 a.m.

So stop on by for your own set of wings.
