If Labute was disfellowshipped for what he says he was disfellowshiped for, then I have problems with that council.

But also I have problems with Labute because he has turned into a hack.

If you are an apostate-Mormon who produces junky crap art, then you are pretty low on my list.

I have two of Williams' books in my library: Red: Passion and Patience in the Desert and An Unspoken Hunger: Stories From the Field. Both are beautiful and a little erotic.

Fairbanks was a big wheel for Fine Arts at the U of U. Here's a tribute website:

David Linn trained at BYU. I would buy one of his pieces, if I had money. I remember seeing his work displayed in the HFAC, and it has stuck in my mind since.
his wife is a photographer. Would be fun to meet them.

Of course, my fantasy would come crashing down if they were ex-Mormons who told me that their religion consisted primarily of admiring the creek behind their backyard.

You are wading into the tall grass. I suggest you stop, before you get your ass kicked.

Erotic doesn't bother me.
