Some great artists happen to be mormon.
There is a lot of "art" at the LDS bookstores of the world.
Most of the mormon artists I like, are not people you can buy a painting by at the LDS bookstore.
Here are some mormon artists I really love:
Cassandra Barney
Kirk Hays
Ron Richmond
Justin Taylor
Tyson Snow
Emilie McPhie
James Christensen
Brian Kershisnik
Very often these artist have themes which I find inspiring and I relate to culturally. More so than ANOTHER rendering of Jesus as a blue-eyed smiling guy. (that latest smiling Jesus by Parsons is just too much for me...)
Anyway, I just thought I would share.

I didn't know Justin Taylor was mormon! I love that painting of his you guys have.
Lezlee, I really like seeing these paintings. I wouldn't know who was mormon and who wasn't!
