“President Henry B. Eyring describes his artistic
meditations as motivated by a feeling of love, including the love of a Creator
who expects His children to become like Him—to create and to build. President
Eyring’s creative works provide a ‘unique, spiritual perspective on testimony
and faith.’ President Boyd K. Packer’s artwork illustrates a fundamental gospel
message: God is the Creator of the heavens and the earth and all things that
are in them, that all nature bears testimony of that divinely directed creation,
and that there is complete harmony between nature, science, and the gospel of
Jesus Christ. Alma testifies, “All things denote there is a God.” Victor Hugo
celebrates the ‘miraculous relationships between beings and things; in this
inexhaustible whole, from sun to aphid. All the birds that fly hold the thread
of eternity in their claws. A nebula is an anthill of stars.’” – Elder Gerrit
