This makes creating images with a sense of beauty and peace which can relieve the stresses of life one of his greatest joys. In February 2012, he decided to go forward with an opportunity to participate in a pilgrimage in Italy inspired by the book “"Chasing Francis” by Ian Morgan Cron., following the footsteps of St Francis of Assisi through Assisi and Rome. This blog is a journal of his preparations for the trip leading up to his departure in April, and thoughts and images from his travels in Italy while he's there.
