Beautiful post...
What beautiful pictures. Thanks for sharing! I especially like "The Annunciation"
Your blog is stunning...I'm so proud to be Catholic right now. There's so much gobbly gook out and about and to see such lush wonder posted here blesses me richly. Thankyou for posting your heart here. I'm a Catholic mom homeschooling in Canada. We're in the middle of a snow storm. I live in Ontario.

Those are all beautiful pictures!
Thanks for your comments ladies. Glad you enjoyed the works of art.
Esther,
Once again you have put together a wonderful Fine Art Friday. I must say that I am not familiar with this artist, and was happy to see his work for the first time.
While I love the painting of the Annuciation; The Beloved really stands out for me with its vibrant colors.
Esther, these pictures are absolutely gorgeous. I've never heard of this artist either and will be looking for his work to be displayed here also.
Thank you so very much
Hugs
