Raleigh Temple by Anne Bradham

About this Image:Raleigh is the first small temple that I painted. I painted it for my niece who grew up in North Carolina. To me, It represents the beauty of the south-the lush green lawns, the colorful crape myrtle trees, and the beautiful flowers-and the blessing of the new smaller temples. The announcement of smaller temples being built around the country was an answer to prayer. More people can now enjoy the blessings of the temple on a regular basis.About the Artist:ANNE J. BRADHAM grew up in the Washington DC area with exposure to art at an early age. While a student at BYU, she traveled extensively throughout Europe on a semester abroad program with artist James C. Christensen. Her work can be found in both public and private collections such as the late Senator Robert F Bennett, Franklin-Covey Co., Museum of History and Art, and the Utah Museum of Art.
