Dominican Sr. Mary Anna Euring's Asian brush painting of St. Dominic, the founder of her Dominican Order. "It depicts one of his favorite ways of praying: walking barefoot throughout Europe as he preached the Gospel," Euring said. "I used the simple tools of Chinese brush, black ink and rice paper to create this image that speaks of Dominic's joy and simplicity. Asian brush paintings attempt to capture the essence of what it is portraying, and this painting of Dominic sprang spontaneously from my desire to preach the Gospel message through my gift of art."
