Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We learned a little about him today from the book Discovering Great Artists by Mary Ann Kohl. We did the triptych craft and while they mention having the kids paint and draw we found using our old Christmas cards was really fun and beautiful.
This is also an appeal for information. There isn't a lot of information out there about him on a kid level so if anyone has any biography or art information it would be appreciated.

Here's a link to a site I like. At the bottom of the short biography is a link to Van Eyck's works.
