The Artist

Catholic Fine Artist
M.P. Serapin is a Catholic fine artist whose work is created entirely in the glorification of God and the veneration of the saints. Originally from Norwalk, Connecticut, and drawing on a renaissance background with studies in theology, philosophy, history, and the arts, each piece is created as an act of devotion and a means of lifting the mind and heart to God.
Working exclusively in digital media, Serapin offers a distinctive blend of traditional sacred art with contemporary technique — capturing both the old and the new. The pieces can be described as a refined form of classical realism, with influences from the Baroque, Renaissance, and Victorian periods, yet appealing to modern sensibilities. Whether intended for church decoration, a meaningful religious gift, or a quiet place of prayer in the home, the work is equally at home in a cathedral or on a bedroom wall.
As Saint Thomas Aquinas wrote, "The artist imitates nature not as it is, but as it should be." Serapin strives to follow that principle — to help raise the heart and mind above creation to its Creator, and to restore the sense of the sacred in our time.
“I love to create beautiful Catholic art that lifts the mind and heart to God, and help restore the sense of the sacred.”
Every piece in the Serapin Catholic Art collection is an original creation. Prints are available exclusively through the official Etsy shop and on Fine Art America.
