Child Prodigy

Okay, so I haven't blogged in a while but that is mostly because I didn't feel like reacharging my camera and uploading pictures. Today, however, I rediscovered the story of child prodigy Akiane. Her parents were atheists, but one night Akiane claimed she had a vision and painted a picture of Christ. Ever since she has tried to create works that will bring people closer to their families, a true knowledge of themselves, and, most importantly, a knowledge of the Savior. Her paintings are often religious or whimsical. Below are a few of my favorites.

"Father Forgive Them" Age 9


"Love" Age 13, Akiane next to the painting.
"Search For Truth" Age 12


"The Dreams" Age 10

"The Journey" Age 9
