Sister Wendy had a fondness for art that was infectious.

Beckett began studying art while living in seclusion in a trailer near her monastery.

Sister Wendy was discovered while visiting an art exhibit in Norfolk.

Viewers always got a kick out of her talking about nudes and her laissez-faire attitude toward controversial art.

Rest in peace, Our Lady of the Hot Takes.
