supremely stunning and a soul wrenching sentiment behind your magnificent portrayal of the patronage of this Sister Saint. So unspeakably sad and the blackest mark upon us all that she must be called upon at all. Her flock are those who are the end result of a human condition which spiritualism tells us we should never be. Hopefully she can finally set them free.

I love nuns! I have this weird fetish for them!

Beautiful, and yet so powerful. I nearly cried looking at this picture, because it says so much about the murders in Juarez.

Art is the desire of a woman to express herself, to record the reactions of her personality to the world she lives in.

This is very beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. The ciudad Juarez women deserve much more attention than they're recieving right now. The whole situation is sick and sad and something needs to be done to stop it yesterday.
