Saint Barbara
I like to call this series, 'Saints on 7.25 X 9.75 Paper', but, 'The Alphabet Series' works just as well. The last ones I did were all the way back in August! St. Agnes and St. Anthony. But I'm back with the series. I hope you enjoy following along with me as I draw the saints from A to Z.
My sister, Miss K is SUPPOSED to be doing biographies on all of these drawings in this series, but she is a little behind.
So just a little information I found on St. Barbara,
-born mid-third century in Heliopolis, Phoenicia.
-after Barbara became Christian, denouncing her father's Pagan beliefs, her father got angry and she was tortured.
-She later was beheaded by her father and became a martyr.
The Next Saint will be St. Benedict
I will have the A's done, the B's done, and the C's done. But there is only one problem - there is only enough paper to do Saint Benedict and one of the D's. - It may be awhile until I finish this series!
