Saw this over on CB. I don't have a really high tolerance for Mormon-commerce, but I think as it concerns paintings it's higher than most here.

All the same, this is some weird stuff. What's next? Pictures with Jesus at the local mall, ala Santa Claus?

Yeah, that is about as weird as I've seen. I think her Jesus looks like John Stamos.

I guess it is really not that weird, just bad.

I want everyone to feel the joy of seeing their family with Christ. I thank my Father in Heaven for giving me the opportunity of not only enjoying every second of what I am doing, but also to be able to share it with others and add joy to their lives.

Wow.

Seriously, I find these to be creepy. Seriously this one http://www.kaypaintings.com/GalleryPages/Kna.htm

looks like, "Hey kid... I'll give you a lollipop if you get into my car..."

Those serve as yet another painful reminder that no religion or culture, to my knowledge, is exempt from kitsch and cheap sentiment. But if we're going to visit that cultural subpart, and I delight in doing so, I still like the Jesus sports figurines, although John Stamos doing the Footprints in the Sand is closing fast, particularly with BYU71's sage commentary on that story.

I like "Jesus Running the Option to Perfection."

With her help, or Photoshop, Bronco could use this as another recruiting tool. Your son, Christ, and NuSkin all up on the LES big screen!
