Featuring in High-Definition Gloss, Textured Velvet Fine-Art, and Classic Matte Canvas

Inspired by St. Thomas Aquinas’s hymn Adoro Te Devote, this painting depicts the “Pelican in her Piety” – a timeless symbol of Christ’s sacrifice. The image captures the legendary moment the pelican wounds her own breast to nourish her young, echoing the line “Pie Pelicane, Jesu Domine.” By framing the bird in a protective, cruciform stance, the piece serves as a visual meditation on the Eucharist and the transformative power of selfless love.

The composition blends a warm, ethereal glow with the visceral reality of the sacrifice, grounding the sacred theme in a tangible moment of devotion. The chicks reaching upward represent the soul’s hunger for grace, highlighting the profound connection between the provider and the sustained. This work is an invitation to pause and reflect on the themes of redemption and the divine nourishment that flows from ultimate surrender.
