"This artwork reflects arising, aspiring, and seeking things virtuous or lovely so that our light will shine. It reflects what I aspire to and my testimony itself. Doctrine and Covenants 64:31–33 was an answer to prayer at a time when I felt that my Heavenly Father had forgotten me. EFY is what caused me to remember my testimony and come back into the Church. What I most long for—to serve a mission—is reflected in sister missionaries teaching the gospel. The relativity equation represents mathematics, science, and knowledge. The door that opens up to the young woman represents the entryway to those aspirations that cause us to grow and to shine, to open the door of our mind to those things virtuous."
