Inktober | Day 5

🖊 Inktober Artist Tag – Day #5

Welcome to Day 5 of my Inktober challenge! Each day, I’m drawing a different prompt with a simple Catholic twist. Today’s theme is “Deer”, and I chose to reflect on Saint Rudolph.


Today’s Drawing Prompt: “Deer”

🙏 Saint Rudolph of Gubbio

Saint Rudolph’s feast day is October 17th and he died in 1066. Not much is known about him but I found a few things on Catholic.org, “Benedictine bishop and disciple of St. Peter Damian, also called Rodolph. He spent years under the spiritual care and monastic leadership of St. Peter Damian until about 1061 when, while still young, he was named bishop of Gubbio, Italy. His term bishop was characterized for its remarkable charity.


🦌 Reflection

As you know I drew Saint Rudolph for the prompt, DEER to play off the famous secular Christmas song, Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer. Obviously Rudolph was one of Santa’s deer.
