Looking over the options for today’s saint, I ended up settling on Saint Silverius, who was one of the handful of popes without a roman numeral after his name (out of 267 popes, there are 41 without roman numerals). What’s more, his father was a pope, although he had married and bore Silverius before being ordained to the diaconate (and according to some accounts was a widower at the time of his papacy, but this is not clear).
This is yet another iPad drawing, although I think I may move to a different medium soon, or at least a different style.
