Saint Barbara



















A while back Matthew Alderman brought our attention to a remarkable old illustration of Saint
Barbara and his art that was inspired by it.
Both pieces inspired me to come up with my own.

Beautiful! What did you use to color it?

Thank you Shaylynn,
I start with an inked drawing, scan it into the computer, and paint it digitally.

Very neat! I love the blossoms' harmoniousness and the lightning. I think her nose and mouth get kind of lost, however.

Lawrence Klimecki, deacon said...

Thanks Mary I'll look at giving the mouth and nose some more definition.

I have uploaded a revised image based on Mary's input, thanks again.

Yes, that is more a clear and balanced emphasis now, I think.
