Boyd Packer’s Art Testifies of Divinity of Creation

Post by _moksha »

Few items shout the Divinity of Creation more than a horse and an old wood plow.
The absence of the farmer was a touch of brilliance by President Packer, to show God's part of the
Creation. Barring that explanation, perhaps the Deseret News writer as taking some prescription pain
medication.

If you zoom in real close you can see "17-white" on that chicken.

Love it! I would totally steal that idea if I had and talent for painting. If you really do it post some pics in the Old Testament forum.


I like to paint things into Mormon kitsch images from the internet. No need to buy a whole painting. Just buy photoshop, and maybe a drawing tablet, for years of therapeutic hobbying.

Probably more like "You are not taking my painting out of its frame! Just put it on the easel and get on with it. I told you I need a nap."

The photograph is a metaphor, too. BK Packer does not color outside of the lines. Or paint outside of the frame.

I almost linked to a Joel-Peter Witkin print, but changed my mind at the last moment... :twisted:
