Since starting this business, I have been working on an image of St. Michael that I love. One that showed him in the pose he is most famously seen, defeating evil in the way he does best. This image was greatly inspired by the statue I got of St. Michael in Assisi, Italy.

I have grown in deep devotion to St. Michael and his intercession since starting college, so being able to fall in love with this depiction of him and bring it to life in a way I like is really special. This will definitely be an image I come back to and continue tweaking as I learn more and grow in relationship with St. Michael.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle🤍

As a part of my relaunch of the business, I have been striving to dive more deeply into the stories of the saints I depict. I have been remaking and updating the looks of saints to more accurately align with their stories, and it has been really beautiful to begin to understand why they received their patronage or just more of who they were.✨

Today’s revamp was St. Dymphna, so I thought I would share a little bit of her story…
St. Dymphna was born in Ireland to a noble, pagan father and devout Christian mother in the 7th century. Her mother died when she was young, causing her father to enter a tough mental state. It got to the point where his mental state had the King’s counselor telling him that he should remarry. He agreed, as long as the woman he was to marry was as beautiful as his wife had been. He sent men into town to find someone who resembled her, but they found none. Her father’s advisor, who is not a good moral man, told him that if he wanted someone that resembled his wife, he should marry his own daughter, Dymphna. Because of the place he was in mentally, he agreed.
Luckily, Dymphna was able to escape with her confessor and a few of her father’s servants. They sailed to Belgium, but due to his wealth, her father was able to find her. He ordered that her confessor be beheaded as he tried to convince her to return to Ireland. When she denied him, he drew his own sword, and beheaded her before leaving her there. She was 15 years old.
The sword she is pictured with represents the means of her own death, and the lilies, a symbol of her virginity and purity. She is also depicted with the crown of martyrdom.

She is seen as the patroness of mental illness and victims of in**st.

St. Dymphna, pray for us.🤍🤍

I am back!✨✨

After spending January through April abroad traveling Europe and spending lots of time in Rome, I have been able to learn about and make great relationships with many great saints. I am very excited to be back with some old (but updated) saint images as well as some brand new ones.🤍

I am really looking to make some cool new changes to the business as summer continues! Thank you for your continued support. I pray that these new images can influence your lives and allow you to grow in relationship with Christ and all His heavenly friends!
🕊️🫶🏼✨

hello! i wanted to hop on to update the status of the business!
•
to start 2024, i will be studying abroad in Italy. this will obviously hinder my ability to create and deliver prints within the time i am abroad.
•
while i am abroad january-april, please feel free to place orders, send ideas for new saints, and anything else, just know that deadlines will be limited until i am back!
•
i pray that this time in Italy will allow me time to pray with these saints, be inspired to make new ones, and help my business grow more deeply upon my return! thank you so so much to everyone who has supported me in my first year of business!
