Notes
Sociology major, BYU. Artist statement: "I was inspired by the perspectives of the innocent people that were killed for believing in Christ. They were allowed to die so that their aggressors could be fully judged for their choices. Alma and Amulek watch on, knowing that the haunting faces in the fire are innocent witnesses to transgression. Watercolor is used here to demonstrate the chaos of that moment."
