Summary: What if you wanted to paint the being you worship? You might worry that you don’t have the skill, but what about an even more basic consideration; is it right to even try? If you do try, then what kind of representation should you use? Classical, realistic, or abstract? You’ll find all these questions and a lot more to think about and see in this excerpt from J. Kirk Richards’ recent keynote address at the 2013 conference of The Association for Mormon Letters, titled, “Seek Ye the Face of Christ: Considerations in Depicting the Savior.” And, because it’s such a visual presentation, we’ve made this a video podcast. Click here to view the presention. That’s this week on The Cricket and Seagull.
