Welcome to the official web gallery of The Art of Divine Mercy, featuring the beautiful Sacred Art of Tommy Canning of Scotland.

Inspired by the great masters in Christian art down the centuries such as Michelangelo and Caravaggio to Carl Bloch and Bouguereau, Tommy’s unique and vibrant style in his depictions of Jesus, The Blessed Virgin Mary, and the Saints brings to life, in a dynamic way for new generations, the beauty and richness of the Catholic faith and Traditions, which unquestionably inspired some of the greatest masterpieces in the history of art.
 

Since the beginning of his paintings and drawings relating to religious themes in the early 1990’s, Tommy’s work has become known and valued all over the world. His work has appeared on countless posters, newspapers, journals, book covers, CD covers, T-shirts, videos and T.V. programmes. Many of His original art works and prints reside in Shrines, Monasteries, convents, retreat houses, seminaries and places of religious formation all over the world.

In recent years Tommy has been a guest at conferences in both the east and west coasts of America as well as the Hawaiian Islands, giving presentations of his art work, including the highly acclaimed and popular DVD of The Art of Divine Mercy, which features John Debney’s stirring music score form Mel Gibson’s Passion of the Christ.
 

In all his art, Tommy seeks to move and inspire the viewer to experience a deeper appreciation for Christ’s merciful heart, and His love and compassion for all mankind.

The Studio:

Tommy lives and works from his home in Clynder, Scotland. A village located on a peninsula in a beautiful part of the west coast of Scotland north of Glasgow. This web site was a gradual evolution that began in 1999. Having painted a number of works inspired by and relating to the Divine Mercy message and devotion as revealed to the Polish mystic, Saint Faustina, it began as a way of displaying some of those prints and so became known as the Art of Divine Mercy
