A Son and A Daughter

This painting aims to communicate what Nephi called the “condescension of God.” Here, Christ physically lowers his body to the same plane as the child, much like he lowered himself into human form to dwell with us. This condescension is meant not just to teach, but also to connect. Rather than portray Christ with the celestial grandeur of deity, this piece visualizes godhood through dust and attentiveness.
