Art by Raber

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.

Completed John Paul II Icon

Finally finished this one. This is just a snapshot--scan for prints not made as yet.

Lots of meaningful detail in this picture--for example, Polish wildflowers around the border plus roses for John Paul's Marian devotion; and flanking the figure, depictions of a view of St. Peter's in Rome and the cathedral in the saint's hometown in Poland. The saint stands above a globe, indicating the worldwide reach of this pope's ministry.

Prints, cards and other items will soon be available at redbubble.com and FineArtAmerica.com. For prints mounted on boards and multiple prints, contact me at raberdavid@yahoo.com or 989-834-2783.

As always, donations in support of my work may be made at this blog via Paypal.

St. John Paul II, pray for us.
