Juan Diego and the Tilma

SOLD!

I had just heard about Juan Diego, and was blown away. He was so....common. He avoided "The Lady" who kept appearing to him because he needed to care for his uncle. He knew she would ask big things of him and well, life was still on the agenda for that day. I was so moved by how Our Lady of Guadalupe still used him. I labeled this sketch, "Juan Diego and the Tilma", because that is all that he brought in his littleness. The very thing he was wearing. What are you called to bring to our lady today?

This is an original pencil drawing and watercolor painting on 8"x10" watercolor paper. Frame not included.
