A calm body of water against a galaxy of stars. There’s one bright light in the distance. The text reads: “Before the seas were shaped the Fountain played, And Light shone out before the stars were made.”

Maintain this house [the deep and secret places of your heart], sweep out its secret recesses until it becomes immaculate and rises as a spiritual temple, firmly secured by Christ, so that the Holy Spirit may dwell in it. ~ St. Ambrose (Office of Readings) #StLucy #SantaLucia

Same kid as model, a few years later, for my #eyes themed #StLucy piece. ❤️
I really like my #sunflower sun in this one!

A watercolor painting of a contemporary St Lucy. A teen girl with braids and a yellow T-shirt holds a blue plate with 2 eyeballs on it. The background is Italian hills with a field of sunflowers and a large sun in a blue sky painted in the same style as the sunflowers, with petals around the border.

Weaving though the images in the piece is curly hand-lettering with the full text of the traditional prayer to St Lucy. ("St. Lucy, whose beautiful name signifies light...")

St. Lucy, patroness of the blind and those with eye ailments. A martyr of unwavering faith, she gave her life for Christ around 304 AD. May her courage inspire us to stand firm in our faith and be lights in the darkness. St. Lucy, pray for us. #SaintoftheDay #StLucy

Tales of Wihtlore

@wihtlore.uk

The lost village of Wolverton vanished when St Urian’s and St Lucia’s churches sank into the earth. On 13th, survivors lit candles in the trees, whispering prayers to guide her home.

It’s said her shadow lingers, seeking a way to lift the village’s curse. #GothicAdvent #Folklore #StLucy

Even though I’m not religious some of my favourite artworks are those of saints. So I drew saint Lucy.
-I am not very happy with the fingers, but at the same time I think they’re okay enough to not fix them 😌

I really don't want to live anywhere else. St Magnus cathedral looking wonderful against the winter evenings sky ahead of the annual #StLucy celebration led by local schoolchildren with visiting Norwegian musicians & dignitaries before the switching on of the town #ChristmasTree (Norwegian) #Orkney
