 I Know Thee Not Limited Edition Print - "Liz Lemon Swindle has a deep, abiding faith that she feels blessed to share
through her art. A lifelong Utah resident, she studied fine arts at Utah State
University. She worked for several years as a set designer and painter for the
Osmond Studios television production company. As her family grew (she and her
husband Jon Swindle today have five children), she saw the need for a more
flexible career and decided to focus on oil painting. In the early 1980s she
tutored under renowned wildlife artist Nancy Glazier and soon after established
her own impressive reputation as a wildlife painter, participating in shows at
major galleries in the central and western United States. However, Lemon
Swindle became increasingly discontent, feeling artistically and spiritually
unfulfilled. In October 1988 she reached a turning point when she submitted a
portrait of children to the National Arts for the Parks competition and
received the coveted Founders' Favorite award. She realized then that there
was an audience for her portrait painting and by the early 1990s she had
devoted herself to the topic closest to her heart: her faith. 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." |
