An enlarged black and white photo that I took of a big, beautiful tree in a Thai jungle. The branching patterns of this giant tree create an awesome look, plus, I love images of natural beauty.
The City and County building on Washington Square and Boston Building on Salt Lake’s Main Street are definitely among my favorites, but I love the Manti Temple in Sanpete County. My family often visits the Sanpete Valley for outdoor recreation and summer festivals, and I am always amazed with the building while passing through town. The influences of Gothic Revival, Neo-Renaissance and Second Empire architecture combine beautifully to make a striking building unlike any other in that region. Nice work Sanpete pioneers!
The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. After reading Angels and Demons and The Da Vinci Code, I was hooked! I love his well-thought-out combinations of history, imagination and a little conspiracy.
This is our chance to check in with members of Utah’s art community to see what they’ve been reading, seeing, doing.
