This question came up in chat
[here](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/10266393#10266393).
The goal was originally to identify this image:

![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/c9XeP.png)

I found a much larger version of the image (click for full size):

[![enter image description

This shows that this is actually part of a 2-page spread in an artbook (pages
16 and 17), and has some (Japanese) text on it. The text is somewhat readable,
as is the artist's name, but there's some difficulty in reading some of the
characters/letters. It also seems likely that the characters are original.

**Who is the artist of this image, and what artbook is it from? Also, what
does the text say?**

What artbook is this image of an angel girl from?


According to imageboards [Zerochan](http://www.zerochan.net/819286) and
[E-ShuuShuu](http://e-shuushuu.net/image/10662/) the artist is Tinkle
(possible under the alias of Tinkerbell).

It was published in "[Angel
Ring](http://doujinshi.mugimugi.org/book/118835/Angel-Ring/)" which seems to
match with the text at the bottom of the pages you posted.
[Toranoana](http://www.toranoana.jp/mailorder/article/04/0000/07/28/040000072843.html)
still has the sale page for it up despite it being sold out, and one of the
pages you posted is part of the preview.

*=You can click on either button to view the page. There is no NSFW content on that specific page, but the site does also sell 18+ stuff. Since this page is SFW, it doesn't matter if you say you are over/under 18 on the prompt page.

My translation, based on the higher quality text that Krazer posted:

> An angel girl. I went for the image of someone wearing a costume for a
> photographer rather than the image of a real angel. I love her baby doll
> features and semi-transparent clothes.
>
> This is a devil girl. Since she's a bit older than the angel girl, her
> clothes are also a little more revealing. ...But I guess they're not so
> different anyway.

The images depicted are from an art book called "Angel Ring" from the doujin
circle Tinker Bell & More Prity.

You can see some of the other pages
[here](http://animeartbooks.net/artbook/135-angel-ring/).

I believe the illustrator might have been involved with the [Cafe Little
Wish](http://vndb.org/v2087) visual novel as well.

~~The one on the Angel one says something along the lines of:~~

~~"Angel Girl. Rather than of a real angel (this was) created using the image
of (someone wearing) a costume in photo shop. I love baby doll and sheep
eyes." (not sure how to translate 羊透明?)~~

~~While the Devil one says something like:~~

~~"This one is Devil Girl. Angel Girl's smaller elder sister, whose eyes are a
bit more (crescent) moon-shaped (月? can't read the character clearly). But
that doesn't change anything does it?"~~
