The last frame filler.




Winter 2021-2022.


Probably my 5th Benedict Joseph Labre painting, the 2nd after Antonio Cavallucci.

Now I will work on more free-style works.  I also need to send a lot of stuff to auction.  My dreams about packing and boarding my flight suggest time is running out.

  2. Very impressive work Terry. Please let us know when & where you will auction. I will participate.
    Recently I dreamt about taking a bus trip with my mother & father. Never dreamt of them before so seems significant. I think we all need to prepare for whatever is coming.

    1. Yeah - we're close in age - so I wonder. A couple dreams included packing, trying to find the tickets, do I need more than a passport. I've had so many I had to take them seriously. I wish I was a saint so that I could rescue people from the war and purgatory.

    2. Actually you can from purgatory at least. Our Lady is working on the War part. I am confused because Russia under Putin is the last gasp of Communism. Yet, Russia has a special place in redemption during the last epoch of history. On another topic I do believe dreams can be messages. They are the closet we get to the other side. Yes, I think we are the same age.

    3. I have always found dreams fascinating. I hope your dream, dear Terry, perhaps indicates taking on a new direction. Although, as Christians and especially as faithful Catholics, death is not a terror nor the end.

      This work is very sensitive and touches me.

      I would *love* to see your take on St. Maximilian Kolbe. He is always shown as so grim, but he must have had great, great love in his soul. He is a favorite of mine, and I would have loved to have known him in life.

      God bless you dear Terry (and Mr. H). The only thing we Catholics should fear is not death but dying without the hope of heaven. And I do believe you both must be pleasing to God and Our Lady, which matters infinitely more than being pleasing to humans (although I enjoy you both!)
