About the Author Called away from a 15 year career in secular art, Adalee Hude now dedicates herself to more directly using her artistic gifts to praise God.   Jesus, the saints and sacred symbols have primary places in the work she does through her company, Brightly Hude Studio Inc. Adalee has also found herself involved in liturgical projects at Catholic churches, which is quite a blessing. She does illustration for various ministries and for her own book endeavors, which seem to be growing in number. When out of the studio, she sings in her parish choir, cooks with her husband, bakes pies and drinks many cups of tea.   Deo gratias!
