This is my online art gallery--all comments appreciated. Right now I am mostly making Catholic icons of cut paper. I like a lot of vibrant color--that's a constant, although not as constant as the divine buzz I get creating stuff. Prints of my icons are available at redbubble.com and FineArtAmerica.com, or directly from me for multiple copies of prints or for prints with handmade frames (at prices lower than the online sales sites). Special commissions always welcome.

St. Francis Icon II
This is an icon of St. Francis including the Wolf Of Gubbio by Francis' side and a depiction of the burning bush, signifying the Saint's teaching about God's creation.
Next in the series: An icon of St. Hilda, an important saint to Anglicans and English Catholics. She was one of the prominent English abesses of the seventh century. Hilda presided over a joint monastery of men and women, and her prestige and influence as a church leader in her time were like that of a bishop--hence she is often pictured with a crosier like that of a bishop. This icon will be a full-figure one set up a lot like this latest Francis icon, with some interesting differences.
