"In the heart of the Church I will be love!" -St Therese of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face.
Glossy Postcard, measuring 4x6 inches, to mail to friends or frame as gifts!
This painting was done with reference to a photo of a fairly recent saint, well-loved by many in the Catholic Church, St. Theresa of Lisieux, or "The Little Flower." She lived and died at the end of the nineteenth century as a girl, really. She was only 24 when she died, as a Carmelite nun. During her last illness she was ordered to write her story, which she called The Story of a Soul. It spells out her simple spirituality, the way of littleness, or spiritual childhood. That is why I like to portray her as a child.
The inscription on the back reads, "Saint Therese of Lisieux was a French, Carmelite nun. Her 'Little Way' is a path of holiness, based on love and simplicity. Her ideal is spiritual childhood, trusting in the love of God the Father."
