Notes

Undecided major, BYU. Artist statement: "The scene I wanted to depict is from 3 Nephi 17 where the Savior expresses His compassion to the people of the ancient Americas. This passage of scripture is deeply significant to me because it gives me a glimpse of Christ’s joy and compassion. I wanted to attempt to capture what He must have felt and what the people present were able to experience in that special and unique moment. I love sharing my testimony through art. This is mixed media. I first sketched an image and then digitally drew over it. "
