- Felix Culpa Blog -


​‘​Felix Culpa’ is a Latin phrase that means ‘happy fault’ and is used in the Catholic Church to refer to Adam and Eve's fall from grace. It was a 'happy fault' because it was the catalyst for Jesus becoming man and showing His immeasurable love by dying for us. He redeemed their error. In an exceedingly small way, I like to think of my art processes as felix culpa moments. I make a lot of errors, but they can all be redeemed.
​As they say, practice makes progress.
