This painting is by Kwani Povi Winder who writes, “Shown here is a gathering of native women in prayer, of all different ages and relations: mother and daughter, friend and neighbor. They are dressed in the traditional clothes of their people and represent the village that goes into raising a child. Mothers are not only those that bear a child, they are those who teach and love. May we each be as the Army of Helaman, and '...not doubt our mothers knew it' (Alma 56:48).

Rachael Cardenas Stallings Thomander describes I Love People as follows: "This piece examines women's participation in religious rituals. Growing up, I learned about ritual mostly through my mother, so I wanted to photograph her wearing a textile piece highlighting her strengths and interests. Her favorite color, insect, shapes, and most defining personality trait are all depicted. The textile piece also points to my Colombian heritage and cultural traditions. I hope this piece motivates viewers to consider those who might not have equal access to liberty, safety, and spiritual fortification.”

Of his painting, Wheatley writes, "Faith Beyond Doubt is part of a series of paintings about how our relationship with our Savior can get us through any difficulties we face."
