During the fifth Sunday of Lent, there is a Catholic tradition of covering crucifixes, statues, and images of saints with purple veils. They are removed before the Easter vigil. Here we see Fr. Dom, from the statue of Christ's perspective. Dom thinks to God, "'Hope to see you again real soon, Lord."

Blessing of the USF Commission.
November 1, 2022. What a wonderful evening had by all, for the blessing of two paintings illuminating the concerns Pope Francis wrote about in Laudato Si': Our Common Home.
Three chaplains standing with my art: Rabbi Camille Shira Angel, Fr. Dónal Godfrey, and Rev. Ronné. The mural outside was designed and painted by 13 students, under the direction of Prof. Sergio De LaTorre.

Illustration in Dark Sonnet
It was a pleasure to illustrate a page in Dark Sonnet, by Bill Dohar & Tom McCarthy. The task was to create an old letter, as if it was written by Victorian poet Gerard Manley Hopkins. Did I copy it from an actual find? There's a mystery to be solved!

Hilma af Klint was a Swedish painter (1862-1944). Her works created under the guidance of spirits were among the first abstract paintings, although since they were not released to public view until 50 years after her death, she did not get credit for being a pioneer of the movement.
