Inktober | Day 7

🖊 Inktober Artist Tag – Day #7

Welcome to Day 7 of my Inktober challenge! Each day, I’m drawing a different prompt with a simple Catholic twist. Today’s theme is “Starfish”, and I chose to reflect on Our Lady Star of the Sea.

Today’s Drawing Prompt: “Starfish”

⭐ Our Lady Star of the Sea

The title “Our Lady Star of the Sea, or in Latin, Stella Maris” is one of the many titles given to Mary, the Mother of God. It is thought to have arisen from a scribal error in a supposed etymology of the name of Mary.

🚢 Reflection

Since today’s prompt was “starfish” what better to use Stella Maris for my subject. I’m not too technical on fitting the prompt specifically to the drawing - I’m just trying to fit things that go with the word and obviously there are starfish in the ocean. So let Mary, Stella Maris guide you through the ocean of this life!
