When All The People Were Baptized, It Came To Pass That Jesus Was Also Baptized; And While He Prayed,

Jesus Christ in the Jordan River has his arms folded over his chest, slightly bowed, as the Holy Spirit as a dove descends upon him towards his right shoulder.

When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus was also baptized; and while he prayed, the heaven was opened. And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven which said, "You are my beloved Son; in you I am well pleased."

- The Gospel of Luke 3:21-22

I was really working myself to the bone on this one a couple years ago. Sort of can't believe it's 2 years old now, but I still have a fondness for this one. The sketch is a bit older, though, as I drew it during chapel at Bible college.

Yona, a widowed pastor with the gift of exorcism and word of knowledge from God, works as a private investigator in paranormal cases outside her ministerial duties and raising her son and her younger cousin.

Mary, mother of Jesus, looks straight at the viewer with a caring gaze.  She wears a red robe with a green head covering enveloping her upper body.  A golden halo shines behind her head.

I remember seeing a small statue of Mary here some.months ago & wanted to interpret it may own way. She's still one of the go-to biblical figures I love to draw again & again.

Maureen talks on a necklace unseen to the viewer in her hand while carrying her jacket with her other hand.  She asks, "So, get tardy for chapel to get you some gummies?"  In the bottom right, there is a panel shown of a gargoyle named Guiscard who is annoyed by her question from his offscreen suggestion.
Maureen and Yeva are in their clerical uniforms.  Maureen comically pats and slaps Yeva on the back, who is a little surprised at Maureen's strength.
Maureen, a young Black woman, holds a brown wooden cross with a purple scarf draped around it against a pinkish background and white borders.

Maureen. Preacher's daughter, friend of gargoyles, kicker of demon booty.

Yona, a Black woman & pastor with a satchel at her side, anoints a doorway for protection from sinister spirits.
Yona, wearing a preacher's shirt & collar, short tan jacket and a dark skirt, looks behind while holding a book in her hands.

Some more Yona doodles for today. Studious in her research and cautious in her line of work when it comes to paranormal investigations.
