As a sacred artist, I strive to create art that is a window into heaven. Each work is inspired by prayer and in relationship with the Holy Spirit. My newest painting was inspired by my Grandmother Rose, who lived out a relationship with the Lord in particular through praying a daily Rosary. In her honor, I wanted to create a painting of Our Lady of the Rosary. This work expresses the mysteries of Christ’s life in relation to Mary. Whether you are new to this prayer or have prayed it all your life, I pray you discover something new about Our Lady of the Rosary!

During a time of confusion and heresy in the early 13th century, many Christians were tempted to split the spiritual and the physical. However, the Blessed Virgin Mary came to their aid. She appeared to St. Dominic with a gift. The Rosary is a meditative prayer that integrates the body and the soul through recitation of Scripture and reflection on the life of Christ. It takes the faithful through the life, work, and love of Christ as seen through the eyes of Mary.
Our Lady of the Rosary promises special graces and support to those who pray this prayer.
“I pray the Rosary every day for you,” I’ll never forget my grandma Rose’s words to me. Unfortunately, she’s now on the other side of life, so I created this painting in her honor. The hope is to showcase the legacy of prayer she shared with us. In this work you’ll see the 4 mysteries on each of the corners.

Mary as Our Lady of the Rosary crushes the head of Satan as she gazes upon her son and holds the rosary in her hands.
The Christ child blesses us with joy as he looks directly at us.
The gold speaks of the heavenly beauty to come and the Almond shape that surrounds them share how there’s a mystery of grace here that’s beyond our understanding.
This painting was donated to my grandmothers home parish in Berwick, PA and blessed so that many can pray with it for years to come. You can watch the dedication here, and learn a little more about Our Lady’s role in my life.

I hope your heart is moved by this piece as much as mine was in creating it. Our Lady always called us to know her son more deeply, and something about beauty in art stirs the heart our hearts and makes this relationship sweeter.
To help your prayer and devotion to Our Lady and her son Jesus, I mustered up a handful of gold leaf limited edition prints!!
