Saint Lucy - Original Canvas Painting
Description
I've been wanting to paint Saint Lucy for so long - I can't quite believe it's taken me so long to get around to it!Saint Lucy's Day takes place on December 13, and is celebrated in a number of European countries. Saint Lucy was an early Christian martyr who, according to legend, helped Christians who were hiding in the catacombs, and since she needed to have her hands free in order to carry supplies through the dark tunnels, she attached candles to a wreath on her head. When she was sentenced to burn at the stake, the fires would not burn her.
Traditional celebrations now usually center around a girl who is chosen to wear the wreath of greenery and candles on her head, representing the fire's refusal to burn Lucy and light at the darkest time of the year.
(read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Lucy%27s_Day)
Saint Lucy is painted on a wee tiny 4x4 stretched canvas with acrylics and ink and just the tiniest smidgeon of fairy glitter on her candle. The painting is signed on the back of the canvas.
As with all my original works of art, she will be wrapped up safely and all US orders will be insured.
Please note that computer screens can distort colours a little bit, so while I try my best to make sure my images are true to colour, it may show up slighty different on your screen.
