Personal History Sunday

Have you ever had a favorite pair of shoes? Describe them.

I can think of three pairs that I have loved. Two are sandals. One is a black pair of platform sandals with straps that wrap around the foot above the toes and a strap around the ankle. The other sandals are also platform and look like they are made of rope material. The straps wrap in the same places that the black sandals do. The second pair are Steve Maden have lasted a very long time and I have loved them. My other favorites are a pair of fashion cowboy boots that are a light tan color. I only got those a few years ago, but I have really enjoyed those as well!


Do you have a favorite painting or artist?

My favorite painting is by Simon Dewey. He's an LDS artist. It is called "Consider the Lilies," It has the Savior and two little children among some calla lilies. I love the look on the faces of the children and the savior. This painting just seems to convey love. The painting is below. Another painting that I have always loved since the first time I saw it is "The Gentle Healer," by Greg Olsen. I think the thing I like most about this painting is the gentle but very strong look of the Savior. I feel like this painting captures best the way I view the Lord my Savior. I also think the title of the picture is perfect as well.
