About
the Artist
Acclaimed
artist Liz Lemon Swindle believes that painting scenes
from the life of Jesus Christ has increased her faith
in his reality. Liz shares a deep and abiding faith
in Jesus Christ through her art and, in 1999, embarked
on the ambitious Son of Man, God with Us project,
which will feature approximately 70 paintings depicting
the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. A lifelong
Utah resident, she studied fine arts at Utah State
University. A one-woman show of her Christian art
traveled to cities nationwide in the summer of 1997
and a book of her paintings, She Shall Bring Forth
a Son was published in 1998, the same year she
illustrated Joseph Smith: Impressions of a Prophet.
