Notes
European Studies major, BYU. Artist statement: "Another name for this piece could be "Decision of a Lifetime" as it depicts Eve choosing to partake of the fruit, and by so doing allowing all of God's children to come to earth and have joy and tribulation. Eve is one of the few women named in both the Bible and the Book of Mormon, the artist feels strongly that there needs to be more positive artwork depicting our first mother. It was created with collage, which builds upon each individual piece, just as the Book of Mormon builds upon the Bible and the truths found therein."
