I was bored during my political science class, so I drew St. Mark of Ephesus trampling on the Pope, it is meant to be funny, nothing serious. Oh, yes, I can't draw, I know.  |

It was just a little joke, nothing serious. The second one is much better. If you like this, you could think of developing your skills to become an iconographer.

I believe a deacon (or even deaconess, at one time) could distribute Communion. However, even though the Theotokos gave birth to Our Lord, there's no evidence she was ordained a deacon. The person with the Communion spoon looks exactly like they make the Theotokos look in other icons, as far as the way she's dressed, so I assume it's her.
