A friend we first met in Waimea in 2004 on the Big Island, who now teaches at BYUH, invited Donna to visit her Art appreciation class and share information about the art on display in the VC. This was the second time Donna was invited to do so.
Her PowerPoint presentation covered art by Ray Gonzales Tabor, Linda Curley Christensen, Harry Anderson, Al Rounds, James Christensen and the Danish sculpture Bertel Thordvaldsen who first created
The Christus in 1820. This 10 foot, 10,000 lb, copy was commissioned by the Church and sculpted by an Italian sculptor around 1976.
This painting by Linda Curly Christensen is titled "The Seven Sacred Pools" that are found on the road to Hana on the Island of Maui. It is our favorite in the VC. Perhaps some day we'll ask her to paint one for us.
As you would expect, it was an outstanding hour. The classroom was "a-buzz" with computer keyboards clicking as the students typed their notes into their laptops.
