St Francis of Assisi Sketch

This is Joyce's graphite sketch of St Francis of Assisi on plain paper. In the background is the town of Assisi. St Francis sports a slight smile as he holds a dove close. This is the patron saint of animals and those who love them. Francis often sang of the joy of creation and the sorrow of the cross.
