Who is watching over your kitchen?
I was so thrilled when a special client contacted me about working on a custom commissioned wood and pyrography piece....She wanted the Patron Saint of Kitchens to watch over her and her kitchen....so I was thrilled to research this Saint....
His name is San Pascual ......San Pascual - is the patron Saint of of cooks, especially New Mexican cooking, the kitchen and domestic animals ( and finding lost animals).
He was a Franciscan who happily worked in the kitchen.
Here is my rough sketch that turned into the final wood canvas....I think I need one in my kitchen too.....
I always love when people contact me to create something unique for them....

HOW COOL!! What a great surface to work on - I can see how beautifully this will look in a kitchen! What a special commission!!
Thank you for your sweet comments - the supplies: The glass and metal frames are from Inkessentials (cheap and easy) and the glue is E600. You can get the crystals at most craft stores, but if you want them in bulk, I use www.crystals2love.com. . . (let me know if that's wrong and I can email the link). I will probably doing more of these without the hanging earring at the bottom, as they are hard to come by.
Thank you for all of your support Diana, xoxoxo
This was a fantastic project and it turned out fabulous! I hope to see that in your shop soon! I see you have your kitchen all decked out for fall and Halloween, it looks great from what I can tell!
Love your artwork of San Pascual. It will make any kitchen feel homey and warm.
Every kitchen should have one:)
HI Diana! This is great! Love it! :)
What a bright and cheery addition to your client's kitchen, Diana! She's going to love your sweet Saint! Hugs, Terri xoxo
