New artwork: Water, Spirit, Blood. Years ago, by the way, I first tried executing this idea, but I wasn’t happy with it and ended up taking it down sometime later. Much happier with this version.

New artwork: I Am a Child of God II. A remix of I Am a Child of God using the recent loose stained-glass style I used on Christ Visits the Nephites III, acknowledging fully that it doesn’t actually look like real stained glass. (And on this piece I decided to go with sharper edges, so to me it almost looks more like stone tiles.)
New artwork: In the Beginning. I’ve been trying for a couple weeks to figure out how to do this piece, and after many failed attempts, I finally figured out something I’m happy enough with (which I honestly was beginning to think would never happen).
Another new artwork: The Lord’s Passover II. (I’ve wanted to do a simpler, better version of The Lord’s Passover and figured it was time.)
The hiatus may or may not be over. New artwork: Mother in Heaven. I used Cirque to create the small circles, then did the rest of the vector work in Figma (which I’m liking much more than Illustrator).
New artwork: Christ Visits the Nephites III, a third installment in the series. This time round I experimented with a style that feels a bit like medieval stained glass. Fairly happy with how it turned out, though of course now I mostly see its flaws. (But early medieval stained glass was full of flaws and imperfections! So it’s in that spirit.)
New artwork: Nothing Shall Be Impossible unto You II. A slightly different take on the same idea as the first piece.
New artwork: Peace, Be Still. I dialed up the SVG turbulence filters to get the effect on the left. Also used the erode operator throughout (with the feMorphology
filter primitive). I couldn’t get Inkscape to show the lines with the filters applied, though, so I ended up screenshotting the piece via QuickLook and then upscaling in Photoshop (hacky, but hopefully not too obvious).
New artwork: Body of Christ. For this piece I re-used most of the code from Tree of Life II, with minor modifications.
Two new pieces: They Could Not Hit Him (Samuel the Lamanite on the wall) and Pearl of Great Price (about sharing the gospel).
