On Back of Card: "In my reading and in every painting I have ever seen of saints they are martyred, suffering, unhappy individuals. There is no representation of joy. One morning before I work up, I heard a voice in my head listing new names for saints: Sanctus Cumulus, Saint of Clouds; Santa Nina, Saint of Winds and Breezes. A saint of planets, one of trees, one of rain and tears. I woke up knowing I was going to create my own collection of saints. These are the first few in my ongoing project. I hope they bring you some of their joy and peace as they watch over their sacred charges." - Sudie Rakusin
Santa Flores - Spanish Saint of Flowers inspires us to remember that from bud to bloom there are many stages before the brilliance of full flower. Be patient, we are always where we need to be.
I sent this to a good friend who is an agnostic, but spends her entire year out in the garden with flowers. In the winter she prepares for spring. In the spring, she nurtures the flowers that are getting ready to come out. In the summer she takes care of her flowers while they are blooming. In the fall, she “tucks” everyone in, in preparation for the winter. This card was made for HER.
