just look at it
Her images could be considered a form of Bubble Porn
When I took the “Story of Mormonism” tour at the Temple (or maybe at BYU), the woman giving the tour was well past bliss and on her way to orgasmic. Maybe there’s something to these garments.
Imitating isn’t art. They might as well be medieval monks and nuns copying religious texts.
She’s even wearing a “tube top”.
I’d have to dig around to find it, but there’s a pretty good This American Life episode on the relationships between a conservative Mormon painter and the long haired “dirty hippies” he’d hire as models for his Biblical paintings.
I’ll just set this down here, and see myself out.
He’s even regularly depicted NAILED TO A DEAD TREE, and looking like he’s in agony. Such weird S&M freaks, those Catholics.
… and Mormons with a sense of humor (yes, they do exist).

Are those bare shoulders I see? Pr0n!!!1!!!11!
If it’s used in a class project, they can, unfortunately.
Zero tolerance policies. A lot of places got tempted into them so they could be ‘tough on X’ and not have to make tough decisions and explanations to parents why their kid got punished for something another kid did too but in a slightly different way (or the other kid just got on better with the administration).
I prefer art schools like the one in Ginny Carlisle’s “The Art of Innocence”. But… maybe that’s just me? Things have certainly changed since the 1970s – very sorry you kids today missed all that.
I guess they should have borrowed some Sharpies from Saudi Arabia?
They can do some amazing cover-ups.
Seen from inside the US too.
A sister-in-law went to BYU for a few years. She claims it’s where she learned to smoke and drink.
That and he believed in providing free health care to all.
It seeps into the skin. The young twerp who guided us on that tour said something like “the Jews are the only people to kill their own god.” One of the most offensive comments I’ve ever personally witnessed.
