I was confirmed into the Catholic Church on June 6th, 2010. I chose Saint Tutilo as my patron saint. These quotes are taken from here and here.
"He was a humble person." "Tutilo, in particular, was a universal genius: musician, poet, painter, sculptor, builder, goldsmith, head of the monastic school, and composer. ... Tutilo was known to be handsome, eloquent, and quick-witted, who brought something of the Irish love of learning and the arts to St. Gall. He died in 915 at the height of the abbey's influence, remembered as a great teacher, a dedicated monk, and a competent scholar."
St. Tutilo is one of the few saints who was known for being an artist. It seems that most of his artwork is now lost - save some of his music and possibly an ivory or two. Perhaps there is more of his work out there to be rediscovered. Many of us artist types have a tendency to become self-absorbed, this seemingly obscure saint whom little is known about is important to remind us the importance of humility.
