St Cecilia

Water color on card stock, 4"x11"

A rough idea that I had but once I drew it out the sheet was not long enough to have both hands and one hand holding her eyes an look ok. So I just left the hand with the candle and painted over the other hand.

I plan on having a remake of this one

The Monk Bernard and the Old Piece of wood

there was a monk named bernard who was a woodcarver. the abbot came to him and asked him to carve a statue of Christ for the feast of Christ the King. the monk because sad because he had only an old trunk of oak, and he wished he had a block of ebony wood. he slept dreaming of what he could do with a good peice of wood, while he slept an angel came and seeing the dust covered trunk he put his hand to carving it.

The Archangel Gabriel and Mary the Virgin

After sketching painting a small water color i decided to enlarge and paint in oil. In this Oil on canvas, for some reason, I drew the hands disproportionally, and did not realize until i began to paint.
