Notes
Human Development major, BYU. Artist statement: "In this scene, Christ appears to the people in the Americas and shows them the marks on his hands and sides. This is what I wanted to paint because I served my mission in Argentina and 3 Nephi 11 reminds me that God loves all his children and that’s why Christ visited them. I used acrylic paint to depict the scene is an abstract style."
