I always enjoy the opportunity to paint fairly unknown saints so I was glad to be blessed with the opportunity to paint St Miles of Susa, a 4th century Persian saint who is probably most famous in the Greek city of Patra where a miracle occurred in 1939 and is probably the only city with a church built in his honour. You can read about the miracle here.
