My Brother got Baptized last month, and his favorite song is "Armies of Helaman"

So, I painted a Book of Mormon for his Baptism (and disclaimer, I'm definitely no Professional Artist. This is just something fun I wanted to do for my Lil Bro)

On the Front, we have a Son of Helaman

On the Side, we have "Book of Mormon" & his Initials in Deseret

On the Back, I have a line from the song "Bring 🌎 His Truth")

And just inside the Front Cover, a Deseret Alphabet Chart

This is an excellent example of Mormon Folk art. Painting Book of Mormons (Books of Mormon?) is something I've seen many times, usually it's with flower designs or temples. Painting a human subject is a twist I haven't seen too often and I don't think I've ever seen the Deseret Alphabet utilized so this is an wonderful expansion of the preexisting body of folk art.
