Monastery Art: Part III

The construction on the monastery is coming along rather nicely.  The art in the monastic refectory, chapter room, and hallways is serving to adorn the new space, making it a place which glorifies God through its beauty.

Br. Michael is coordinating the artistic efforts and finishing some of the work begun by the professional artists.
