Spreading Love through Artwork

I believe that religion plays a significant role in a person's life. If you're raised to follow the teachings of your religion, be it Roman Catholicism, Islam, Hinduism, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or whatever it may be, this somewhat defines who you are and helps you be the person you want to be. There are some who become so passionate about their religion that they express their faith in different ways. There are those who join their church choirs and sing praises to God while there are some who spread the word of God by being active in church and becoming missionaries. 

The LDS Church is one religion that inspires its members to show their passion not just by preaching the word of Jesus Christ, but by also showing them through media and the arts like photography and lds paintings. The church is able to give opportunities to a lot of its members because of the businesses they own like a television station and bookstores where their art work is published. They also showcase their work in art galleries and sell their paintings in stores. People can also buy their artworks online where there’s a wide variety of a painting to choose from like those of baby Jesus, portraits of Jesus Christ, LDS Temples, paintings of the resurrected Jesus Christ and many more. The paintings are beautiful and some are quite life-like. It's very evident how inspired these artists are. Buyers will probably get that same feeling when they buy a piece.
