Canning is the most exquisite Catholic artist of our times. With each stroke
of his brush, he seems at one with the Divine Artist, creating beauty and

"What a
wonderful site! And what wondrous artwork! I am only writing to thank you,
and to say how right you are about "images!" We need the holy, beautiful
ones so much! Through a long story, a few years ago I became a Byzantine
Catholic. (I had always been a Roman one.) Anyway, after years of trying
inside myself to fight how sterile and cold our churches had become, I was
suddenly in a world where the iconostatis with all its beautiful, heavenly
images called us into the divine! As you may know, for Eastern Christians,
including Byzantine Catholics, the Icons are essential. They are used as
"windows" into the divine world! So, please never stop your work! It is such
a gift from God that you share with the world!"

website by way of the "Our Lady of America" website and I wanted to thank
you so very much for using your talents for the glorification of Our Divine
Savior and His Most Holy Mother. Your work is beautiful and so very moving.
It is very inspiring to me, So from one daughter of the Catholic Church to
one son of the Catholic Church, thank you from the bottom of my heart for
loving Our Holy Mother so much that you give Her all of your talents. God
bless you in your ministry always!! In His Love."

"Dear Mr.
Canning, I got your web site from an article in the "Divine Mercy Times".
The first image I clicked on was your latest work and I have never been so
moved in all of my life as I was when I saw the bloodied Feet of Our Blessed
Savior appear on the screen. Tears started streaming down my face! You are a
truly gifted man and are surely guided by the Holy Spirit. I was equally
awed by all of your other works. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to
see them. I am touched to the core when I look into the eyes of your
sketches of Jesus and Mary. God bless you!"

Lord.
