Good eye to catch that...
Aya Sophia Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 I'm over the moon seeing all these paintings! I had seen only one of them before. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have them as postcards that you could keep in a box in a cabinet in the novitiate so that you could take them out and "go visiting" with them once in a while!

Feankie Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I wish I could upload the pictures of the paintings of the crowned nuns I have, but I'm pretty much a slug when it comes to that kind of stuff. Any helpful hints?
